Loud “F*ck TKO” Chants After WWE WrestleMania 42 Leaves Roman Reigns Stunned

Roman Reigns regained momentum at WrestleMania 42 Night Two, but the post-show atmosphere told a different story.

After winning the 2026 Royal Rumble, the OTC challenged CM Punk for the World Heavyweight Championship. After weeks of intense personal shots and physical confrontations, Reigns and The Second City Saint finally collided in the main event of WWE WrestleMania 42.

The two stars pushed each other to their limits with Punk using every move available, GTS, Anaconda Vice, a low blow, and an elbow through the announce table. At the end, Reigns hit two consecutive Spears and pinned CM Punk to capture the World Heavyweight Championship.

Following the victory, Roman Reigns appeared on the ‘Mania post-show.

Roman Reigns hit with “F*ck TKO” Chants

During the WrestleMania Sunday post-show in Las Vegas, Roman Reigns said he’s an unsigned billion-dollar check, and WWE, Endeavor & TKO cashed in on him.

I knew it from the beginning, I said it before, I’m a billion-dollar check, we just haven’t cashed it yet, and now look at us. [Corey] Graves was there, Cody’s dad, cutting promos on a Wednesday in a warehouse, [Big] E was there too. I said it, I’m an unsigned billion-dollar check. And guess who cashed it, baby, the WWE, TKO, Endeavor.

During the segment, things took an unexpected turn when fans in the background began loudly chanting “F*ck TKO.” The chants began after Reigns mentioned TKO, WWE’s parent company. It drew a reaction from the OTC, leaving him stunned.

Heading to ‘Mania, a section of fans were unhappy with TKO’s direction. Complaints have largely focused on rising ticket prices, heavy advertising during shows, multiple celebrity involvement, and changes in how WWE presents its product.

Despite the noise, the show continued without interruption. The panel didn’t address the chants directly and moved on with the segment. Reigns also didn’t engage further and stayed focused on the interview.

The moment has since gone viral on social media, with many fans debating whether the reaction signals a growing disconnect between WWE management and its audience.

While WrestleMania 42 delivered big results inside the ring, this post-show reaction shows that not everything is resonating with the fanbase right now.
