WWE Superstar to hand Roman Reigns WrestleMania 41 loss and lure Paul Heyman away forever? Chances explored

Roman Reigns is preparing for his next storyline after his victory in a chaotic Tribal Combat bout on the RAW premiere on Netflix. Reigns, who was crowned the Undisputed Tribal Chief by The Rock, had Paul Heyman on his side, and the two will now move on to their next storyline.

This storyline could involve The Best in the World CM Punk, who triumphed over Seth Rollins in the main event of the show, and is now shifting his attention to the Royal Rumble.

At the same time, he has targeted Gunther, the World Heavyweight Champion on RAW, and the Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes, aiming to become world champion again, but his major target could be none other than The OTC.

Paul Heyman has acknowledged that he owes CM Punk a favor after the latter joined The OG Bloodline at Survivor Series, but it is still unclear what this favor is. Fans could assume that The Second City Saint would pursue a match against the former Universal Champion, especially if Roman becomes a world champion again.

At the same time, CM Punk could ask Heyman to add a stipulation that if Reigns loses at 'Mania, Paul Heyman would leave him forever and would become Punk's Wiseman. It is well known that when Punk had Heyman standing by him, he went on the greatest title reign of his own, the 434-day WWE Championship run from the 2011 Survivor Series to the 2013 Royal Rumble. This could be the favor that Paul Heyman owes The Straight Edge Superstar, and could eventually lead to Roman Reigns' loss at The Grandest Stage of Them All.

Paul Heyman names Roman Reigns as the one who took WWE from the 'COVID era' to the 'Netflix era'

Roman Reigns was the one who revolutionized WWE with his impressive run as the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion, holding the title for more than three and a half years, for a record 1,316 days.

Speaking in the post-RAW press conference, The Wiseman named The OTC as the one who took WWE from the 'COVID era' to the 'Netflix era.'

"I am so sick of it now that the entire television industry has come out of COVID, and Roman Reigns did not miss a single week of television when every other production was shut down, took this company from the COVID era to where it is, to multi-billion dollar, to a merger to now that we’re on Netflix, there is no more excuse," Heyman said.
