Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns is in his final innings heading into the biggest event of the year. A popular superstar recently weighed in on the match and believes that The Tribal Chief will lose to Cody Rhodes in Philadelphia.
The New Day's Xavier Woods is no stranger to Roman Reigns and The Bloodline as both factions have fought wars against each other for several years in the company. However, times have changed and both are on separate brands carving their way to Philadelphia for The Showcase of the Immortals.
The American Nightmare's story is the biggest thing happening in the promotion right now. Speaking on WWE Deutschland, The New Day's Xavier Woods believes that Roman Reigns will no longer be the champion after WrestleMania XL against Cody Rhodes.

"No. There's no way that he gets through WrestleMania [XL] with that championship. If he does, I don't know. I can't even say. But I fully believe that he'll no longer be champion after WrestleMania 40. And then I feel like we might just have a champion who shows up and defends the title a little bit more. And then maybe people will have a shot at winning the Universal Championship." (From 15:30 to 16:10)
