Surprising plan for Roman Reigns heading into WrestleMania 41 is possible, says WWE analyst; it involves The Rock & Cody Rhodes
Roman Reigns has main evented WWE WrestleMania for four consecutive years. A WWE analyst recently suggested The Original Tribal Chief would also main event The Show of Shows in 2025.
On a recent episode of Insight with Chris Van Vliet, WWE analyst Sam Roberts discussed the potential scenarios for WrestleMania 41's main event. He predicted that The Rock would not compete in the 2025 Men's Royal Rumble or the Elimination Chamber to earn his spot at the Show of Shows.
Instead, Roberts claimed The Final Boss would immediately go after The American Nightmare and challenge him to a one-on-one match at The Showcase of the Immortals. Earlier this year, The Rock pinned Rhodes on night one of WrestleMania 40:
"So, how do you get there? What if this time for your night two main event it's Cody and The Rock, right? The Rock's already come back. He's got the People's Title. Cody's got the WWE Championship. Rock's like, 'Enough, I'm gonna do what I should've done last year. In fact, I'm gonna do what I did do last year. I'm gonna pin you but this time I'm gonna take you out and I'm gonna take it all,'" he said.
The RAW Talk host added that Roman Reigns could then be the one to win the Men's Royal Rumble. As fans expect him to challenge the World Heavyweight Champion Gunther, The Original Tribal Chief would surprisingly decide to take away The Rock's match against Rhodes. Roberts claimed the square-off could then develop into a Triple-Threat Match:
"Roman Reigns then after wins the Royal Rumble and it's like, 'Oh, Roman and Gunther.' Roman goes, 'No, I'm taking the match from you.' And now instead of Cody taking The Rock's match, Roman's taking The Rock's match. And it develops into a Triple Threat." [From 20:43 to 21:27]

Over the past few weeks, reports suggested WWE may be planning a Triple-Threat Match between The Rock, Cody Rhodes, and Roman Reigns. The American Nightmare addressed these rumors in a recent interview with Vegas Revealed.
The Undisputed WWE Champion claimed what would happen at WrestleMania 41 would be unexpected and it would surprise the fans:
"I don't care what the rumor is, as long as the rumor is I'm in the main event of WrestleMania. I'm good with it. What I can say for those who keep an eye on the rumor, I bet you what they get at WrestleMania 41 is unexpected even to them. Even the people who follow this, the diehards who feel like they have their finger on the pulse, this one is going to be tough. This one is going to be unexpected, is the best way to put it, but in the best of ways," Rhodes said. [H/T: Fightful]
