Roman Reigns is being speculated to headline Wrestlemania 39 which will also be a two-night event continuing the tradition of the past few years. The Show of Shows will be emanating from the SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California on April 1 and 2, 2023 and the possible main event match is being speculated for a long time.
Since this WrestleMania is being promoted as WrestleMania Hollywood, fans are expecting Hollywood Megastar and WWE Legend Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson to be a big part of this event. It’s pretty much obvious that if he does return for the Biggest Event of the Year then he will battle his cousin Roman Reigns, possibly for the Undisputed WWE Universal Title.

Sources like Wrestling Observer have provided updates about how WWE is moving forward with the plan that Roman Reigns vs. The Rock is indeed happening. If this plan remains intact then WWE’s Tribal Chief will feature in his seventh Wrestlemania main event match, as noted by the @WrestlingWorldCC Twitter handle.
Roman Reigns’ previous Wrestlemania main-event records
In that case, Roman Reigns will just be one more match away at the Showcase of Immortals from tying Hulk Hogan’s record of main-eventing Wrestlemania on eight different occasions. His record from previous ‘Mania main events are given below:
WrestleMania 31 – Lost to Seth Rollins in a Triple Threat WWE Championship Match involving Brock Lesnar
WrestleMania 32 – Defeated Triple H to win the WWE World Heavyweight Championship
WrestleMania 33 – Defeated The Undertaker
WrestleMania 34 – Lost to Brock Lesnar in a match for the Universal Championship
WrestleMania 37 (Night 2) – Defeated Edge and Daniel Bryan in a Triple Threat Match to retain the Universal Championship
Wrestlemania 38 (Night 2) – Defeated WWE Champion Brock Lesnar to become the first-ever Undisputed WWE Universal Champion
In the latest, at WWE Clash At The Castle 2022, Roman Reigns defeated Drew McIntyre to retain the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship. Solo Sikoa (younger brother of The Usos) from NXT 2.0 attacked McIntyre in between the match which allowed the champion to hit the Spear and pin McIntyre for the win.
As of this writing, Roman Reigns is not scheduled to compete at the Extreme Rules premium live event on October 8th. His next title defense is possibly happening at the Crown Jewel PPV event in early November.
