Roman Reigns will square off against massive WWE star in dream match at WrestleMania 41, says legend
Roman Reigns is expected to return to WWE after several months of absence to confront Solo Sikoa. Meanwhile, a Hall of Famer believes The Tribal Chief will square off against another Bloodline member at next year's WrestleMania.
The Bloodline member in question is none other than The Rock. The Final Boss initially planned to fight his cousin at WrestleMania 40. However, the company changed direction due to a massive backlash from fans over Cody Rhodes forfeiting his opportunity to the Hollywood megastar.
Although The American Nightmare ended up facing The Tribal Chief at The Show of Shows, many, including WWE Hall of Famer Bully Ray, believe The Rock versus Reigns would eventually happen.
On the Busted Open podcast, the wrestling legend claimed the match has to happen at WrestleMania 41 in Las Vegas.
"Vegas. Rock and Roman has to happen in Vegas," he said. [51:12 - 51:15]
The 52-year-old claimed Las Vegas would be a perfect place to hold the massive dream match between the two cousins. Meanwhile, he pointed out that The Bloodline storyline could continue for a long time.
"The whole Vegas aura is perfect for The Rock and Roman, I truly believe. But this is a great 'problem' for the WWE to have with all these players and all these potential stories. And it's so funny because this Bloodline story can go on for so long because there are so many members of the family," he added. [51:46-51:15]
Roman Reigns will return to WWE as a babyface, says Mark Henry
During the same episode of the Busted Open podcast, WWE Hall of Famer Mark Henry discussed The Bloodline's attack on Paul Heyman last Friday on SmackDown. He claimed The Tribal Chief would undergo a significant character change.
The World's Strongest Man suggested the former Universal Champion would become the biggest babyface in the last decade following his return.
"I'm just saying, Roman [Reigns] is gonna come back the biggest babyface than Shawn Michaels. And I mean, there's been a lot of great babyfaces, but nobody saw one like The Heartbreak Kid, baby. I've seen him get at least five or six jumpers to try to come to his aid. And I think that's where Roman is gonna be. I think Roman is gonna be the biggest babyface that we've seen in this decade," Mark said.
After the latest developments in The Bloodline storyline, former WWE host Matt Camp predicted that Roman Reigns would return at SummerSlam. It would be interesting to see if that prediction would come true.
