Former WWE star names two major opponents for Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 41 (Exclusive)
Former WWE star Afa Anoa'i Jr. recently listed off a couple of names who could face Roman Reigns at WrestleMania next year. Roman has been headlining The Grandest Stage of Them All for a few years now and his matches are a major attraction of the PLE.
Reigns had firmly established himself at the top of the mountain in WWE. He reigned supreme as The Tribal Chief for well over three years. However, that came to a crashing end at WrestleMania XL when Cody Rhodes took the Undisputed WWE Championship from him. Subsequently, Reigns went on to lose control of The Bloodline and became "a chief without a tribe."
On Sportskeeda Wrestling's Enter the Bloodline podcast, Anoa'i mentioned that WWE could go the route of Roman Reigns vs. Solo Sikoa. He felt the creative team could drag out Reigns' feud with The Bloodline until 'Mania next year. However, the former WWE star claimed that he would be more excited to see The OTC cross paths with The Rock. He felt that was the big money match and it needed to happen.
"They could drag this [to WrestleMania], you know. If they drag this, then Solo would be the obvious answer. I still wanna see Roman vs. The Rock." [From 27:57 to 28:03]

While WrestleMania is still a few months down the line, Roman Reigns has to focus on Bad Blood where he will form an uneasy alliance with Cody Rhodes to take on Solo Sikoa and Jacob Fatu.
It will be interesting to see if the two former rivals can keep their differences aside long enough to pick up the win at Bad Blood.
