Roman Reigns is currently the epitome of the professional wrestling world. It appeared like Roman Reigns’ reign over both WWE World Titles would come to an end at WrestleMania, but it did not. The Tribal Chief’s reign as Universal Champion continues, and he is quickly reaching 1,000 days.
During this week’s Monday Night Raw, WWE creative director Paul “Triple H” Levesque made a significant announcement that will help shape the company’s future. Triple H introduced a new World Heavyweight Championship belt, which will be awarded to the victorof the Night of Champions main event on May 27:
With the forthcoming WWE Draft, Triple H stated that Roman Reigns would carry his Undisputed Universal Championship to the brand he is assigned to, while the new World Heavyweight championship will be the top title on the opposing brand.
Reigns’ historic reign is approaching 1,000 days, and it’s evident that the organization has no intention of stripping him of the championships before he achieves that milestone. Apparently, it was concluded that introducing a new title would be a reasonable alternative, although the new champion’s status would be questioned as long as Reigns remains unbeaten.
So, the big question is where might Roman Reigns get drafted to?
So, typically it can’t be said what WWE plans to do. Reigns was drafted to the SmackDown brand at the 2019 WWE Superstar Shake-up on the April 16 edition of SmackDown, with WWE announcers praising Reigns as “SmackDown’s greatest ever acquisition” as well as the future of SmackDown and WWE. Since then he has been part of the Blue brand. For almost 4 years now Reigns has been part of the blue brand and now it looks like his time with the blue brand might be coming to an end as we guess that Reigns is going to the Red brand.
Also, Steve Carrier of ringside news reported that the USA, RAW’s TV network wants Tribal Chief and The Bloodline to be part of the red brand.
With Reigns historic Reign reaching 1000+ days it will be interesting to see which brand “The Tribal Chief” gets drafted to.
