Major Prediction Made About Roman Reigns’ WWE Future

Roman Reigns’ WWE future has been subject to speculation.

The Original Tribal Chief dominated the Stamford-based company for almost five years before losing the Undisputed WWE Championship to Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania 40.

While his run as the Head of the Table saw him as a heel, the 40-year-old has been heavily cheered since his comeback from hiatus last year to feud with Solo Sikoa and the New Bloodline.

Despite being a fan favorite, Reigns has not officially turned babyface. Speaking with Chris Van Vliet on INSIGHT, WWE analyst Sam Roberts predicted that the former Undisputed WWE Champion would never officially become a good guy.

No, and I don’t think he ever will officially turn babyface, because I don’t think he’ll ever abandon that character. But I remember saying on NotSam, I was like Roman Reigns’ babyface turn is the minute he loses the championship. Because the minute he loses the championship is the minute we all get a second to breathe.

It’s the minute we all get a second to reflect. It’s the minute we all get a second to appreciate. And lo and behold, he loses the championship. This new Bloodline starts to form. Next thing you know, Roman’s fighting Solo. Cody’s teaming with Roman, and Roman is a baby face without ever changing. [H/T: INSIGHT With Chris Van Vliet]

Roman Reigns WWE Status Has Reportedly Changed

The Original Tribal Chief has only competed three times so far in 2025. His last match took place at WrestleMania 41 last April when he competed in a Triple Threat against CM Punk and Seth Rollins. Meanwhile, he has been absent from TV since the RAW after the Show of Shows.

According to a recent report from WrestlingNewsCo, Roman Reigns has now become a special attraction, a position similar to the one held by Brock Lesnar.
