Rumors suggest that The Tribal Chief Roman Reigns is all set to make his much-awaited return at SummerSlam. He has been absent since WrestleMania 40 when he lost the Undisputed WWE Championship to Cody Rhodes. In his absence, his former Enforcer, Solo Sikoa, has taken over The Bloodline.

Despite being a heel at the time of his last match, fans are eager to see him return and chants of ”We Want Roman” are often heard around arenas whenever the new ‘Tribal Chief’ Solo Sikoa shows up. Let’s dive in and take a look at the directions WWE can take for Reigns’ WrestleMania 41 match.

3) Paul Heyman could betray Roman Reigns for not coming to his aid

The New Bloodline led by Sikoa brutally attacked the Wiseman Paul Heyman after he did not acknowledge Sikoa as the new Tribal Chief. Not only did he hit the Hall of Famer with a Samoan Spike, but his faction also powerbombed him through the announce desk. Reigns is expected to return and avenge what they did to his trusted manager.

However, Paul Heyman might have realized that despite everything he has done for Reigns, The Tribal Chief was not there to save him from The New Bloodline even though he cried for help every week. This could lead to the ECW icon becoming bitter and re-joining CM Punk as his manager.

The two could target Reigns during his match against Solo and exact revenge for not helping Heyman when the time was right. This could set up a mega clash between Punk and Reigns at WrestleMania 41.

2) First-time-ever feud to culminate in a match at WrestleMania 41

Roman Reigns was considered the face of WWE for years. While he passed the torch to Cody Rhodes in a sense at WrestleMania 40, many feel that a top RAW Superstar could be the next man to carry the company as Reigns did. That star is former NXT Champion Bron Breakker.

Much like Roman Reigns, Bron Breakker is believed to be poised for greatness and will be molded into the next big thing. His fierce and hard-hitting style has already garnered him a fanbase. A clash with a megastar like Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 41 could solidify him as a top card talent and the successor of The Tribal Chief as the most dominant superstar in the company.

1) Finally face Seth Rollins at the Grandest Stage of Them All

The stories of Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins have been intertwined with each other since they made their debut in WWE. Once calling each other brothers as part of The Shield, the two went on to become iconic rivals. So much so that, despite conquering the company as the Universal Champion for over three years, Reigns has still never pinned Seth Rollins in a one-on-one match.

At WrestleMania 40, Seth Rollins’ mind games eventually led to Reigns losing his title. When Rollins came dressed in his Shield attire to interfere in Reigns’ match against Rhodes, The Tribal Chief chose to go after Rollins instead of Rhodes, costing him the match. A mega match between brothers-turned-rivals would be a massive box office attraction for WrestleMania in Las Vegas.
