WWE is marching towards Wrestlemania 39 which will indeed be the Grandest Stage of them All in 2023. The two-night extravaganza will have some of the top WWE superstars booked under the bright lights of Hollywood. Already rumors are out regarding WWE’s plans for the main event for both nights.
It was reported earlier that there have been reports about WWE officials having backstage discussions where Roman Reigns could be forced to drop the WWE Championship on the road to WrestleMania 39. This would ensure that the top two world titles would be split, after a gap of one long year.

Plans around Reigns constantly changing
Also, the move would ensure that there would be two Men’s World Title matches taking place at WrestleMania 39 – one for the WWE Title and one for the Universal Title. However, plans around the current title holder are constantly updating. As reported by Xero News the current plan is for him to walk out of WrestleMania Hollywood as still the Undisputed Champion.
Roman Reigns to walk out of Wrestlemania 39 as the champion
The source noted that the dual champion isn’t scheduled to defend just the WWE Title at any point in January or February and there’ve been no talks to strip off any one of the belts. The booking for Royal Rumble also ensures that both titles will be on the line when Kevin Owens challenges Roman Reigns on January 28,
“Regarding the WWE Championship: I’m told there has not been any discussion to take the title from him yet, he is not scheduled to defend just the WWE Title at any point in January or February.
They haven’t even spoke about ‘stripping’ him of it, as of yet. Source states as far as WrestleMania goes, Roman is likely walking out with both. Believes ‘double duty’ is out the window.”
It was added that a plan is being nurtured where Roman might have to vacate one of the world titles, possibly the WWE Title during the WWE Draft set to take place after Wrestlemania 39. However, sponsors and network demands have to be met regarding his future appearances, and afterward, the plans will be finalized. For the time being, his title reign looks to be absolutely safe.
