“He Almost Has Said It”- Roman Reigns’ Potential WrestleMania 40 Match Revealed, Days After the Incomplete “Story” Incident Resurfaced

Even after a defeat against Roman Reigns, Cody Rhodes’ aim is to finish his story. After the grandest stage this year, things have shifted both stars. While Rhodes went in a feud with Brock Lesnar, the WWE Undisputed Champion had issues in The Bloodline. However, Jey Uso pinned him for the first time at Money in the Bank, what’s next for Reigns is a question.

Recently, there are reports about the WrestleMania 40 plans for ‘The Tribal Chief’. It seems Reigns will have his anticipated Wrestlemania 39 rematch next year in Philadelphia. 

Possible WrestleMania 40 opponent for Roman Reigns

The Bloodline Civil War is over and The Usos emerged victorious over Roman Reigns and Solo Sikoa. Money in the Bank became the second consecutive PLE where The Head of the Table didn’t defend his title. But there might be future plans for Reigns to put his WWE Undisputed Championship on the line in the upcoming PLEs.

One of the opponents is Cody Rhodes who claimed he will finish the story. It will happen when he will win the title his father never won aka WWE Championship which Reigns has right now. Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer noted The American Nightmare’s comments from the Press Conference. However, he claimed and Reigns can have a match at WrestleMania 40. Rhodes gave the reason why he is not going behind Seth Rollins’ world title have to win the WWE title to finish his story .

Meltzer said, “His storyline is that the belt that his father didn’t win – which is apparently Roman’s belt – that’s the one that’s the story.”

He added, “So basically, he almost has said it’s next year’s WrestleMania, which is the plan right now.” (H/T Ringside News)

After winning the Men’s Royal Rumble this year, Rhodes failed to win the big one at WrestleMania 39. Furthermore, on RAW after WrestleMania, he got attacked by The Beast Incarnate. Thus culminating Cody Rhodes vs Roman Reigns rivalry for a while. On the other hand, ‘The Needlemover’ recently got pinned for the first time in three years by Jey Uso.

Roman Reigns vs Jey Uso for the WWE Undisputed Championship at SummerSlam?

Jey Uso created history by being the first WWE superstar to pin The Head of the Table in three years. Moreover, the former Undisputed Tag Team champion had also pinned him for the first time in 2013.

However, a huge victory over Reigns has risen Jey’s stock as a WWE star. Hence, we can assume a return of ‘Main Event’ Jey Uso and challenge his cousin of the WWE Undisputed Championship.

Roman Reigns and Jey Uso had few matches in 2020. Thus, their clash once again will be the best fit in the aftermath of The Bloodline Civil War. They can continue the feud until The American Nightmare once again sets his sights on The Tribal Chief’s championship.
