Cody Rhodes vs. Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 39 is heating up, tying up with the storyline of Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens fighting The Bloodline. You can sense that this will be the main event at Backlash, with Cody Rhodes as Undisputed WWE Universal Champion, and Kevin Owens/Sami Zayn as Undisputed WWE Tag Team Champs versus Roman Reigns and the Usos. For now though, Cody is on a mission to finally prove himself as a worthy main event champion, realizing the culmination of his story (or journey) at WrestleMania 39.
With Roman Reigns nearing 1000 days as champ, it is certainly possible that WWE ultimately decides to have the Tribal Chief retain yet again. It’ll be quite a milestone yes, but I don’t think they should do it at the expense of the American Nightmare. Creating a new face of WWE, someone that can carry the company for at least the next 5 years, is and will always be a higher priority than a record.
My prediction: Cody Rhodes beats Roman Reigns clean and wins the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship.
We were treated to a fiery, passionate promo between Sami Zayn and Cody Rhodes on this week’s WWE RAW. Roman Reigns eventually put out the fire by responding like a true boss, saying them having a pep rally to convince each other that they can beat him already puts them in a position where they don’t stand a chance. Regardless, these two incredible WWE Superstars have all the momentum in the world right now, that anyone of them can believably win the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship from the Tribal Chief.
The Usos vs. Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens is a real possibility for WrestleMania 39, so that lessens Sami’s chances of winning against Roman. If I was HHH though, I’d take advantage of Zayn’s incredible popularity now and make him champion at Elimination Chamber. Cody’s bound to have his moment at some point, and having him beat Reigns is kinda predictable in my opinion. I say Roman can regain one of the titles after the WWE Draft, and have the 1on1 match against Cody at Summerslam. Whether Sami wins this Saturday or not, Roman’s days as champion are really numbered, like Sami has said.
This saga between The Bloodline, Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens has been SOOOO GOOD. To some people like me, you want to add another swerve chapter prolong this storyline, but I understand that the majority are already wanting the Sami Uso beatdown from the hands of Roman Reigns, Usos and Solo Sikoa. That way, Sami could become the biggest babyface in WWE (even bigger than Bray Wyatt and Cody Rhodes), and ultimately dethrone either Roman Reigns or The Usos (reconnecting with KO). I smell a swerve of some unexpected proportions, with Jey Uso showing brotherly love to Sami Zayn—or perhaps, Kevin Owens pulls off a landscape-altering upset tonight against The Tribal Chief and win the coveted Undisputed WWE Championship.
Tomorrow, one thing’s for sure—the wheels will fall off, and begin the long, difficult road to WrestleMania 39 for one, two, or everyone involved in the biggest storyline WWE is telling right now.
Last night at SmackDown, The Bloodline, together with the Honorary Uce Sami Zayn, created one of the most epic segments ever in WWE history. It was filled with all kinds of emotions, from Solo/Usos/Sami fearing Roman’s wrath, Sami trying to apologize, Jey not giving a damn about what the Tribal Chief says, and most importantly, everyone in the Bloodline breaking characters because of Sami Zayn. Jey, though ‘not very Ucey’ at that point, was really trying hard to contain his laughter—Roman was able to play it off from the initial character break. The segment turned out to be another golden moment in this storyline. This was Hollywood Rock-The Hurricane level of epicness. Everyone involved in this is having a great time, and that resonates with the WWE Universe as well. Great job, HHH and co.
Sami Zayn is gold, man. Solo Sikoa, who arguably is even more serious than Roman Reigns, was also a victim of Zayn’s antics weeks ago. Last night, Jimmy did a pretty good job of hiding his laughter but was still caught smiling a couple of times by the cameraman. Roman has broken character twice already, while Jey, who supposedly hates Sami, has been caught multiple times already lol.
At some point, there’s a good chance that Sami will be acknowledged as a full-blown Uso. Yup, Sami Uso y’all. However, we know how this story will end. It may be hard to watch and emotions will be stirred, but it’ll all be for Sami Zayn’s ultimate babyface turn.
I wouldn’t say I was too shocked to see Karrion Kross back on WWE TV, we all kinda saw it coming when Triple H became the head of creative. But to actually see him back on SmackDown last week, man, I’m just glad he was able to find his way back. Now, we will see his full potential and it looks like he’ll be immediately pushed to the moon and become a main event fixture before the 2022 ends, with reports about USA wanting a world champion on RAW. Looks like they’ll be splitting the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship soon, with the WWE Championship going to Karrion at some point, while the Universal Championship as the title for the Roman Reigns-Drew McIntyre feud.
Tick Tock. It’ll be time’s up for Roman Reigns’s reign (for a lack of a better word) as undisputed champion.
The best was saved for the last Reigns-Lesnar encounter. It was a hellacious, in-your-face war between the two alphas of WWE. What really stood out though was the tractor used by Lesnar. He made good use of it, from his entrance to the dumping of Roman at one point, and of course, the lifting of the ring, which had Roman hilariously falling to the outside. As Vince McMahon would’ve probably said, it was such good…stuff lol. It wasn’t just Suplex City, Roman got dumped in TRACTOR CITY too!
If it truly was the last rematch of these 2 bigger-than-life WWE Superstars, they gave us one memorable, banger of a fight. The ending might’ve disappointed a huge chunk of the WWE Universe, but it’s what heels do. Whoever beats Roman for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship will immediately get a boost to the moon. Brock Lesnar doesn’t need that anymore.
