Roman Reigns graced the Hall of Fame 2024 ceremony to officially induct his Special Counsel, Paul Heyman.
However, amidst the celebratory atmosphere, the occasion took a surprising turn hinting at the potential end of the Tribal Chief era in WWE.
During his speech, Reigns reflected on Heyman’s significant role in his career, mentioning the invaluable advice he received from the Wiseman.
In a moment that caught fans’ attention, Reigns disclosed that his association with Heyman defines the essence of the Tribal Chief persona.
“The moment I’m not with the Wiseman, is the moment you won’t see the Tribal Chief anymore,”
he asserted.
This statement fueled speculation among fans, suggesting a possible character evolution for the Bloodline Leader once separated from Heyman. Many envisage a storyline where Heyman’s departure triggers a transformation in Reigns, perhaps through a betrayal angle.

With WrestleMania 40 on the horizon, anticipation mounts over the potential storyline developments.
Reigns is slated to face Cody Rhodes on Night Two of WrestleMania, with the match’s stipulation hinging on the outcome of Night One’s tag team clash featuring Reigns and The Rock against Rhodes and Seth Rollins.
Speculation swirls around Heyman’s role in WrestleMania 40, with many predicting his betrayal of Reigns during the event.
This anticipated betrayal could pave the way for Rhodes to claim the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship, culminating a long-standing narrative.
Adding to the intrigue, reports suggest that Reigns is poised to take a hiatus post-WrestleMania 40. This hiatus angle could align with Heyman’s betrayal, providing a seamless transition for Reigns to return with a revamped persona.
As the wrestling world eagerly awaits WrestleMania 40, the potential fallout from Heyman’s betrayal looms large, promising a paradigm shift in WWE.
