While Roman Reigns may not be a world champion anymore, he is still expected to be a prominent member of the roster moving forward. Triple H teased in the post-WrestleMania 40 press conference that the next chapter of Roman Reigns' story will blow people's minds.

"He's changed the industry; he's that good! Can't say enough good stuff about him. And then to do what he did tonight with Cody Rhodes and complete... It's not completing this story; it's just getting to the end of this chapter, because he's gonna go on a whole new story now that is going to blow people's minds, I think. And I know he's gonna take it to a whole another level," said Triple H. 

Roman Reigns' historic run started at WWE Payback 2020, where he defeated Braun Strowman and The Fiend to win the Universal Championship. Roman Reigns held the title for over 1300 days, adding the WWE Championship feather to his hat along the way.

Roman Reigns could finally feud with The Rock after The Rock is done with Cody Rhodes. Fans have been waiting for a match between The Rock and Roman Reigns ever since Roman Reigns turned heel and it looks like their wish could finally come true at WrestleMania 41 in 2025.
