Roman Reigns appears to be on a collision course for a Triple Threat Match at WWE WrestleMania 41, according to insights from former WWE analyst Matt Camp and current analyst Sam Roberts. The path to The Show of Shows has taken shape following recent events involving Reigns, Seth Rollins, and CM Punk.
At the Royal Rumble, Reigns and Rollins were simultaneously eliminated by CM Punk, sparking immediate tension. A heated verbal exchange between Reigns and Punk escalated when Rollins intervened, delivering two punishing Curb Stomps to the Original Tribal Chief (OTC). The Visionary then clashed with Punk at ringside. After a brief hiatus, Reigns made a shocking return on last Monday’s show, ambushing Rollins during his Steel Cage Match with Punk. After laying out the former World Heavyweight Champion outside the cage, Reigns turned his fury on Punk, attacking him as Paul Heyman, his Wiseman, attempted to console The Best in the World.
Speaking on a recent episode of the Busted Open podcast, Matt Camp suggested that the ongoing storyline is steering toward a Triple Threat Match featuring Reigns, Punk, and Rollins at WrestleMania 41. However, he expressed mixed feelings about the direction, arguing it might not fully suit Reigns’ stature. “This is looking like a three-way match. I’m not super-enthused about a three-way match. I think the build would be solid and has been already. I’m trying to get a feel for what this Roman Reigns is. Because it almost feels like this is a little beneath him because he’s just been THE guy for four years. And I get there’s vengeance for Seth and he doesn’t like Punk or Punk doesn’t like him,” Camp explained [14:37-15:10].
Meanwhile, WWE analyst Sam Roberts, on his Notsam Wrestling podcast, also predicted a Triple Threat Match at WrestleMania 41 but added a twist: a potential betrayal that could steal the spotlight. Roberts speculated that CM Punk might leverage a favor Paul Heyman owes him—stemming from their alliance with the OG Bloodline at Survivor Series—by requesting Heyman’s support in his corner. However, Roberts believes the WWE Hall of Famer could double-cross Punk at the event. “If CM Punk calls in that favor and if Paul Heyman has to be a man of his word and be in CM Punk’s corner, maybe Paul Heyman turns on CM Punk because ultimately he’s gonna be fighting for survival,” he said.
The plot thickened when Heyman announced on last week’s show that Reigns will return to WWE SmackDown this Friday. Fans are eager to hear what the OTC has in store after his ruthless assault on Punk and Rollins. As tensions rise, the road to WrestleMania 41 promises high stakes and unpredictable turns.
