It’s not always easy for a towering figure like Roman Reigns to relinquish the spotlight, but the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion has made it clear that if he’s not the top dog in WWE, he’d consider leaving the company.
While some may interpret this as a momentary burst of passion, there’s more to Roman’s statement than meets the eye.
Despite the possibility of being dethroned, The Tribal Chief isn’t planning to bid farewell to WWE anytime soon, and there are compelling reasons behind this decision.

For starters, Roman Reigns is bound by contract. Having inked a new deal with WWE in 2022, granting him a part-time schedule, the specifics like salary and contract duration remain undisclosed.
However, it’s evident that WWE aims to keep Reigns in their fold for the long haul.
With a presumed multi-year agreement likely extending beyond 2024, even if he loses his title at WrestleMania XL, Reigns will remain a prominent figure within the global wrestling.
Moreover, tantalizing matchups lie ahead. While every contender is eyeing Roman Reigns, The Rock has opted to ally with The Tribal Chief rather than challenge him at WrestleMania XL.
Nonetheless, the ultimate showdown between Reigns and The Rock, vying for the mantle of Head of the Table, remains on the cards.
Additionally, potential clashes with Seth Rollins and a resurgent CM Punk add further intrigue to Reigns’ future storyline possibilities.
Speculation also surrounds the possibility of Reigns taking a hiatus following his potential dethronement, paving the way for a character shift upon his return.
As anticipation mounts for WrestleMania XL, the WWE universe eagerly awaits the unfolding saga of The Tribal Chief and what lies beyond the grandest stage of them all.
