WWE has been at its best with Roman Reigns on top, and the company is turning back to the Tribal Chief after some lackluster creativity in 2025.
Reigns went on “The Pat McAfee Show” this week and took a shot at WWE, with some storyline behind it, for the creative not evolving and new faces not getting over in the void he left.
Now he’s back to save things by winning his second Royal Rumble match, tossing Gunther over the top rope to end the show in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, on Saturday.
Reigns has not competed for a world championship in nearly two years and has his choice at WrestleMania 42 in Las Vegas of facing Undisputed WWE champion Drew McIntyre and World Heavyweight champion CM Punk. He has history with both, but Punk seems to make the most sense in the current landscape.
