Top WWE talent Roman Reigns is expected to retain his belt against Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania 39

With WrestleMania 39 rapidly approaching, Roman Reigns is prepared to defend his Undisputed WWE Universal Title against Cody Rhodes. Paul Heyman, the Tribe Chief’s Special Counsel, recently predicted the high-profile match.

Rhodes will be aiming to end The Tribal Chiefs over the 1000-day reign in perhaps one of the biggest WrestleMania main events of all time. During The Show of Shows, The American Nightmare hopes to capture the world title in memory of his late great-father, Dusty Rhodes.

Faction 919 recently questioned Paul Heyman if Rhodes will defeat Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 39. The Bloodline member responded, saying: “No. Hell no. Eff no. No, no, no, no, no. No,” said Heyman. (H/T WrestlingInc)

Is Cody Rhodes feeling the heat ahead of his showdown against Roman Reigns?

The American Nightmare’s main event fight against The Tribal Chief next month will probably be his most important encounter in professional wrestling. Considering the magnitude of the competition, Cody Rhodes recently stated on the Out of Character podcast that he is not under any pressure leading up to WrestleMania 39.

“He’s [Roman Reigns] not feeling that pressure unless it’s the pressure of wanting to keep it going. The pressure he’s feeling is this is a regular day for him, ‘oh, I’ll wake up and comb my beard and slick my hair back and I main event WrestleMania. That’s what I do.’ That’s not something I’ve ever been able to say. So, I won’t succumb to the pressure because I know he’s not going to. And I think it’s one of the factors in why this is gonna be one of the biggest and best matches bell to bell of all time.”

WrestleMania 39 will take place on April 1st and 2nd, with key fights like Logan Paul vs. Seth Rollins and John Cena vs. Austin Theory being added to an already packed schedule.
