Predicting Top 3 Opponents For Roman Reigns At WWE WrestleMania 40

Although WWE WrestleMania 40 is several months in the future, it appears that the company has already commenced its preparations for the highly anticipated event.

The forthcoming edition of WWE WrestleMania, WrestleMania 40, is set to be a two-night spectacle. The event is slated to occur on April 6th and 7th, 2024, at the iconic Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. This will be the second time that WrestleMania graces the city of Philadelphia and the state of Pennsylvania, following WrestleMania XV in 1999. Moreover, it will be the first WrestleMania since WrestleMania XXX in 2014 to incorporate Roman numerals in its title, adding a touch of tradition and grandeur.



The WrestleMania main event is traditionally considered the most influential and prestigious match on the card. It is often the fulfillment of major storylines and rivalries that have been built up over several months or even years. As the grandest stage of them all in professional wrestling, WrestleMania is WWE's flagship event, and the main event is the pinnacle of the entire show.

With WWE WrestleMania 40 several months away, WWE ha already started questing its Main event match which is likely to be headlined by Roman Reigns and an opponent to be predicted below:

• 1. Roman Reigns Vs. Cody Rhodes

Speculation regarding Reigns' trajectory leading up to WrestleMania 40 is abundant. Notably, the Tribal Chief has entered the past three WrestleMania events as the Universal Champion, a feat he likely hoped to repeat. However, following his recent loss, the championship landscape appears uncertain. But fret not, WWE Universe, plans are already in motion for Reigns' future, and it promises to be an epic clash of giants. According to Dave Meltzer on Wrestling Observer Radio, the current plan for WrestleMania 40 involves a showdown between Reigns and "The American Nightmare," Cody Rhodes.



Rhodes himself dropped hints about this confrontation during the post-Money in the Bank press conference. The wrestling world is well aware of Rhodes' mission to capture the title that eluded his legendary father, Dusty Rhodes. With Roman Reigns holding the championship, the stage is set for a monumental clash at WrestleMania 40. While the World Heavyweight Championship holds prestige, Rhodes' ultimate goal appears to be the Universal Championship, a goal that adds an enticing narrative to the upcoming year.

Since their headline match at WrestleMania 39, both Reigns and Rhodes have embarked on separate paths. Reigns has been part of the WWE's chart-topping Bloodline storyline, a family saga riddled with conflict that culminated in his recent defeat. Rhodes, on the other hand, has continued to shine as one of WWE's top stars, securing a victory over Dominik Mysterio at Money in the Bank 2023.

• 2. Roman Reigns Vs. Cody Rhodes

Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins have had a long and storied rivalry, dating back to their days in The Shield. They've faced each other multiple times at WrestleMania, with Reigns winning the first two matches and Rollins winning the most recent one.



If they were to face each other again at WrestleMania 40, it would be an incredibly close match. Both men are incredibly talented and have been at the top of their game for years. Reigns is the current Undisputed WWE Universal Champion, while Rollins is one of the most popular wrestlers in the world.

It's should be noted that Reigns is on an incredible run right now, and he's one of the most dominant champions in WWE history. He's also been getting a lot of positive reactions from fans, which could give him an edge in the match.

• 3. Roman Reigns Vs. Randy Orton

Roman Reigns and Randy Orton stand as notable figures in the annals of WWE, boasting a desirable array of accolades. Witnessing their clash at WrestleMania 40 would undoubtedly materialize as a reverie match for legions of fervent fans.

After a prolonged absence of more than a year, Randy Orton has remained on the sidelines owing to persistent back issues, casting doubt on his future within the realm of professional wrestling. In a recent interview, his father, Bob Orton, expressed his belief that medical practitioners would rather see his son refrain from returning to the squared circle.

If I had to pick a winner, I would say that Reigns would be the slight favorite. He is the current champion, and he is on a hot streak. However, Orton is a dangerous opponent, and he would not be an easy win for Reigns. Either way, a match between Roman Reigns and Randy Orton at WrestleMania 40 would be a great spectacle, and it would be a match that fans would be talking about for years to come.
