Paul Heyman Reveals Roman Reigns’ Next Big Challenger and It’s Unexpectedly Not Cody Rhodes or Gunther – “We Have Reached the Apex of Time”

Ever since Roman Reigns returned to the squared circle in 2020, he has been at his best. Reigns has dominated the entire pro wrestling business since his return, and his heel turn changed the entire scenario. Reigns underwent a major revamp of his character, and it ended up benefitting him.

The Tribal Chief is on a roll and has been a world champion for over 1000 days. However, he is due to face The Usos at Money in the Bank alongside Solo Sikoa, after The Bloodline suffered a breakup, causing a rift between the brothers. While speaking to Pat McAfee on his podcast, Paul Heyman revealed a name that could be the very next challenge for Roman Reigns.

Whose name did Paul Heyman take while revealing the next challenge for Roman Reigns?

Throughout his 1000-day title reign, Roman Reigns has faced a plethora of opponents, including current stars, and legends. However, every single time, Reigns has toppled them to come out victorious in their bouts. Speaking to former NFL player, Pat McAfee, Paul Heyman revealed a name that could be the next big threat to Reigns. And, fans might be shocked that it is neither Gunther nor Cody Rhodes.

Speaking in vintage Paul Heyman fashion, instead of taking a name of an opponent, Heyman would go on to promote Reigns himself. He said, ” Himself! Because that really is Roman’s greatest challenge in life, is topping himself. That the Roman Reigns of tomorrow has to better than the Roman Reigns of today. And the Roman Reigns today, now needs to be better than the Roman Reigns of tomorrow.”

The Tribal Chief’s Wiseman would reveal that the next big challenge for Reigns is, Roman Reigns himself.

He further said, “So, the only true challenger to Roman Reigns is himself. That he has to constantly be better. He can never truly peak cause once he peaks that’s it. Cause we have reached the apex of time, and its time to go do something else. The Tribal Chief gets better and better. So, he’s looking to be the GOAT today and tomorrow and eclipse that level to create an unprecedented level like an expanding universe, is always bigger than it was a moment ago.”

The 37-year-old Roman Reigns is on a completely different level now, and The Usos might be facing more odds at Money in the Bank 2023.

What is next in line for Roman Reigns after Money in the Bank 2023?

At Money in the Bank 2023, The Bloodline Civil War is scheduled to take place. The Usos are in the mood to take avenge all of their abuse in these past three years. However, after their feud is done, what is next in line for Roman Reigns?

Fans believe Reigns could be going against Jey Uso or Jimmy Uso at SummerSlam and defending his World Title. It would finally bring a conclusion to where it all began. However, there are also rumors of having Seth Rollins face Reigns at Survivor Series, in a Champion versus Champion match.

Recently speaking to the New York Post, Rollins gave an insight into their future probable match. He said, “It’s always there and it’s always gonna be a matchup people are interested in seeing, and the further we get away from it I think the more people will want to see it when you start to touch on it again. I think that it’s just inevitable.”

The Shield made their debut at Survivor Series, and having the two former Shield brothers face each other at Survivor Series would be historic indeed. Both Reigns and Rollins are two of the greatest in-ring performers of this generation, and Rollins is the only one Reigns is yet to defeat in his current reign. But Paul Heyman has a different say.
