Roman Reigns has been placed in the top-most spot in the WWE for the past couple of years. He resides on a completely different level since the return to WWE television in 2020 at SummerSlam. Within one week, he became the Universal Champion and since then he didn’t have to look back on his career. The reinvention allowed him to dominate in the WWE.

It is safe to say that he delivered to the fullest and live up to the expectations from him as the face of the company. Although he’s a heel superstar, Roman Reigns was never cheered, this much as a babyface superstar in the early phase of his career. But as a heel, he went on to beat the merchandise selling of John Cena.

The Head of the Table has dominated as the WWE Universal Champion and his reign has obviously been well-documented. Being a champion for more than 700 days is an accolade as he became the longest-reigning champion of the modern era who also main event WrestleMania for the sixth occasion. The question remains what could be next for him.

While speaking to Ariel Helwani on The MMA Hour, the Special Counsel, Paul Heyman was asked if there are top superstars available who can feud with Roman Reigns now that he’s literally beaten, everyone. Heyman claimed that there are some names who can step up but he didn’t specifically take any name.

Roman Reigns has the biggest feud with Brock Lesnar in 2022

“I think there are some people who are really ready to step up and I’m not going to name them as it is up to them to step up. And they’re not going to get the benefit of my endorsement if they don’t know that it’s time for them to step up. There are still some very big-money matches for Roman Reigns. Is this the biggest one (against Brock Lesnar) on the table at the moment? Of course it is.

It is the main event of WrestleMania – the biggest WrestleMania match of all-time. Winner take all, title vs. title, unification matches. Are there other people that are ready to step into the spotlight and give Roman Reigns a fight? Most definitely.”
