The earlier reports of WWE setting up a triple threat featuring the top three star powers at Wrestlemania 41 appear to be true following Roman Reigns’ return on WWE Raw, this week interfering with a matchup between CM Punk and Seth Rollins. It’s now evident that the trio would lock horns at the grandest stage of them all with bad blood for each other boiling for a long time.
That being said, rumors are also on for this match at Wrestlemania 41 to become a number-one contender’s match for a future shot at the WWE World Title. However, Sean Ross Sapp of The Fightful reports on The Hump that WWE hadn’t done a contender’s match at the biggest stage for over two decades and that tradition remains intact.
On The Hump, Sapp was asked if there’s going to be a number-one contender’s stipulation that will be added to the rumored Roman Reigns vs. CM Punk vs. Seth Rollins triple threat match at WrestleMania 41. In response, Sapp told fans not to expect any such thing as WWE doesn’t have any creative plans about it,
“Something WWE doesn’t like to do especially on WrestleMania because it’s such an evergreen show, they don’t necessarily like to say it’s a top contendership match because 20 years down the line people probably won’t remember that it’s a top contender match but they’ll remember that the match happened.”
