Major WrestleMania match discussed
Added 2024-12-20 16:16:42 +0000 UTCA major WrestleMania match has been discussed, and is the likely direction for WrestleMania.
Fightful Select’s Sean Ross Sapp heard via WWE sources that CM Punk vs. Roman Reigns at next year’s WrestleMania has been heavily discussed. We’d heard a number of weeks ago that this wasn’t particularly the plan, but had been adjusted of late. We’re told that CM Punk had also hoped for the match.
Roman Reigns and CM Punk have had one televised singles match, nearly 11 years ago. The show took place on the WWE Old School Raw edition in January 2014. Roman Reigns emerged victorious.
A number of months later, CM Punk did a post-WWE interview where he mentioned WWE telling him to “make Roman look strong,” which was a talking point that stuck around for quite some time. Fightful Select was told last year ahead of CM Punk’s return that Roman Reigns was a talent that was not keen on him returning.
We're told that this is a drastically different direction than what had been planned for both talent even a couple of months ago, none of which involved the Rock. It was noted to us that if The Rock informs WWE of involvement in WrestleMania, much of the card could change, including this.

I get folks not liking Punk (I certainly don't) but he is a draw and him finally getting his WM main event is a story the media would love to talk about.

2024-12-20 18:26:12 +0000 UTCI get that Punk has been minding his Ps and Qs but I imagine Roman still doesn't want to risk him going into business for himself again

2024-12-20 16:23:41 +0000 UTCTime for big Dwayne to clear out his schedule. We can’t have Punk taking up one of those main event slots.
