5 Possible opponents for Roman Reigns at WWE WrestleMania 37

#2 John Cena could challenge Roman Reigns to try and win his 17th world title

John Cena vs. Roman Reigns

Another huge part-timer Roman Reigns could face is John Cena. As per reports, The Leader of the Cenation is 'nearly locked' for WrestleMania 37. He is likely to play a substantial part on the card but doesn't seem to fit well with most Superstars on RAW and SmackDown.

One of the few exceptions is Roman Reigns, who would be a great opponent for Cena. The two of them are among the biggest stars in modern WWE history, with the 16-time world champion spending a decade on top. While Reigns faced Cena at No Mercy 2017, a match at WrestleMania 37 would mean much more.

Roman Reigns is now the top heel in WWE and is the one big barrier that John Cena would like to cross. Add in the fact that he is tied with Ric Flair at a record 16 world titles, and we have a very compelling story. Cena can sell this match with a couple of passionate promos, while Reigns can sell it simply with his facial reactions.

It would be the perfect retirement match for John Cena if he plans on permanently stepping away from the ring, with Roman Reigns ending his long and tenured career. The Tribal Chief would obviously overpower the old face of WWE, further establishing him as the top dog in the entire industry.
