5 wrestling rumors we hope are true and 5 we hope aren't: Unexpected Superstar to get top babyface push, Backstage concern on SmackDown due to Reigns storyline

#4. Hope is true: Huge plans for Roman Reigns post-Clash of Champions

Roman Reigns got manhandled by Rowan on SmackDown

The Roman Reigns attacker storyline has been all over the place with some odd twists and turns. It was finally revealed that Erick Rowan was, in fact, the attacker. Daniel Bryan didn't have anything to do with it and it was only Big Red who was considered the perpetrator.

A match against Roman Reigns has been made official for Rowan at Clash of Champions 2019, which has come as a surprise in itself because the assumption was that it was leading to a Daniel Bryan vs Roman Reigns rivalry.

They even teased a Bryan face turn after Rowan sent him through a table as well, but he may not necessarily turn face, because according to Cageside Seats, the objective of it all is to eventually lead to a Reigns vs Bryan rivalry.

We hope this is true because ultimately, this should have been the objective in the first place. Perhaps we'll see them have a long-term storyline with each other or at least one that will drag on for a couple more months and PPVs. It should lead to some good matches.
