Roman Reigns eyes potential WrestleMania clash with CM Punk

Roman Reigns’ path to WrestleMania 41 could feature an unexpected twist as CM Punk emerges as a potential challenger for WWE’s biggest event. The development follows their recent alliance at Survivor Series: WarGames 2024, where Paul Heyman orchestrated Punk’s addition to The OG Bloodline.

During the WarGames match, Punk proved instrumental in securing victory for Reigns’ team. A notable interaction between Punk and Heyman afterward hinted at future developments, with Punk reminding The Wiseman of an owed favor.

While initial speculation focused on potential matchups with Cody Rhodes or The Rock in Las Vegas, the emerging tension between Reigns and Punk suggests a possible high-stakes confrontation. Their temporary alliance required Heyman’s mediation, highlighting underlying animosity between the two performers.

Reigns discusses career trajectory amid Netflix transition

Roman Reigns addressed his WWE future during a Sports Illustrated interview, emphasizing his commitment to evolution and improvement. “The burden is, how do we do it again? How do we compliment it? How do you make the sequel better or the trilogy? How do you continue to do it? Because I’m not ready to stop at this point,” Reigns said.

The SmackDown star also sparked controversy by claiming “nobody wants” to see Cody Rhodes with the WWE Title, fueling speculation about future encounters between the rivals. Their history includes two previous WrestleMania main events.

WWE’s upcoming move to Netflix in January adds another layer of uncertainty to The Bloodline’s status, with potential roster changes looming.
