This came about after Daniel Bryan outlasted Kevin Owens, Cesaro, Sami Zayn, Jey Uso and King Corbin in Elimination Chamber to earn a shot at the Universal Title. The championship match took place directly after the Chamber match and following a surprising start to the match from Bryan, Reigns gained control and made quick work of Bryan to retain the gold.
As Reigns planned to head to the turnbuckle to hold up his title, he was met with a spear from his now-WrestleMania opponent, Edge.
