After Roman Reigns’ huge victory over Drew McIntyre at WWE Clash at the Castle, rumors have emerged that Reigns is expected to go undefeated until WrestleMania 39 where he is heavily rumored to face his cousin, The Rock in one of the biggest Mania showdowns in the history of the company, as reported by WrestlingNews.co.
The report further suggests that Roman will defeat the The Rock to score the biggest win of his career and only after that at some point will he be dropping the Undisputed Title to a worthy candidate. This is rumored to be the original long-term plan of Vince McMahon and looks like Triple H is sticking to it, explaining the reason why Drew McIntyre did not get his big win at Clash at the Castle.
