Veteran predicts Roman Reigns' next steps after his WWE contract expires
WWE Superstar Roman Reigns emerged victorious alongside his OG Bloodline members and CM Punk at Survivor Series: WarGames. Meanwhile, wrestling veteran Vince Russo speculated on what The Original Tribal Chief should do after his current contract with the Sports Entertainment Juggernaut expires.
In the 2024 Men's WarGames Match, Reigns, The Usos, CM Punk, and Sami Zayn defeated Solo Sikoa's Bloodline. Recently, wrestling veterans Vince Russo and Jonathan Coachman analyzed the premium live event held in Vancouver, Canada on November 30.
Speaking on The Coach & Bro show, Coachman discussed the Stamford-based promotion's attempt to re-sign The Bloodline member with a multi-year, multi-million dollar contract, which would make him the highest-paid WWE Superstar in history.
Building on the former RAW commentator's comments, Vince Russo predicted that Roman Reigns needs to become a movie star after his WWE contract expires. The veteran compared the OTC's potential to John Cena's successful transition to acting and claimed that the 39-year-old could become a legitimate Hollywood star.
"He [Roman Reigns] needs to be a movie star. [sic] He has the ability to go on to much bigger and better things. He's not going to AEW. Maybe, he can have the John Cena deal. This guy can be a legit Hollywood star," Russo said. [From 47:59 to 48:18]

WWE legend says John Cena's final opponent should be Roman Reigns
John Cena will retire from professional wrestling after his 12-month Farewell Tour in 2025. As of now, The Franchise Player has been confirmed to make appearances at next year's Royal Rumble, Elimination Chamber, and WrestleMania.
During an interview with MuscleManMalcolm, WWE Hall of Famer Kurt Angle stated that John Cena's final in-ring opponent should be Roman Reigns.
"John Cena's [last match should be] probably [against] Roman Reigns. I think knowing that where Roman was when he started, and I remember a promo where John put him in his place; I think they would have a good storyline coming up if they decide to have that last match of Cena vs. Roman," Angle said.

It remains to be seen if Reigns vs. Cena will be in the books before the latter hangs his boots in 2025.
