3 Best possible matches for Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 35
Roman Reigns made a triumphant comeback on Monday Night Raw this week following a successful battle with leukemia. He has been out of action for the last 4 months since he had relinquished the Universal Championship on the 23 October episode of Raw after making a shocking revelation about his health condition.
Roman Reigns, through an emotional promo on Raw this Monday, announced that the cancer was in remission and he was ready to make a return to the WWE ring. He also delivered his two signature moves to Bobby Lashley and Drew McIntyre on Raw, signaling that he was cleared to compete in the ring.
The Big Dog was not expected to compete at WrestleMania 35 until last week, but now that he has returned to Raw, he is expected to feature on the 'Mania match card. Roman Reigns is one the most popular superstars today so WWE will be planning to book him in a marquee match at the Show Of Immortals.
In this slide, we are going to take a look at 3 ideal matches for the returning Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 35.
Notable mentions:
Roman Reigns vs The Rock, and Roman Reigns vs Drew McIntyre.
#3 Brock Lesnar vs Seth Rollins vs Roman Reigns (Universal Championship match)
This is the most logical direction for Roman Reigns considering he never lost the Universal Championship. The Universal Championship match for WrestleMania 35 has already been announced, as this year's Royal Rumble winner Seth Rollins is set to challenge Brock Lesnar. The match card can always change before the event, so we cannot rule out changes in the announced matches.
If WWE books Roman Reigns in the Universal Title match at the WrestleMania, then it will become the rematch of the main event of WrestleMania 31.
Initially, Brock Lesnar vs Roman Reigns was supposed to be the main event of WrestleMania 31, but Seth Rollins intervened during the finishing stages of the match by cashing in his Money in the Bank contract, which made it an impromptu triple threat championship match.
The only issue with this decision might be the fan backlash WWE might get if Roman Reigns is inserted right back into main event picture.
On the flipside, this may benefit both WWE and Brock Lesnar. If WWE wants to take the title off Brock Lesnar without hurting his credibility and aura, then the triple threat will be the perfect scenario.
WWE can book fan favorite Seth Rollins to pin Roman Reigns in order to make him win the Championship. This will be a favorable decision with respect to both fans and WWE.
