13 Mind-Blowing WWE WrestleMania 42 Predictions You NEED To Know
3. Roman Reigns Beats CM Punk
Only after both guys have kicked out of a few finishers, because that's the blueprint for main event matches in the modern era. Well, that's not strictly accurate; The Rock and Steve Austin were doing it in 2001 and that can't really be described as modern (yay to being old!), but you get the gist. Some spears and a GTS will be powered out of before the night is through on Sunday.
None of that will matter to 'OTC' Roman Reigns when he eventually pins CM Punk to become the new World Heavyweight Champion in front of his adoring public. Yeah, take that for your comments about Sika. Apology ashmology. Punker said sorry for bringing family into proceedings on Raw, but that wasn't good enough for Roman.
The harsh truth is that WWE's flagship has slipped a bit since CM Punk became champion. Now, that's not all on him, but he doesn't feel nearly as interesting as Seth Rollins was heating up to be before injuries robbed him of his Vision and forced a hefty re-write of the entire faction.
WWE/TKO would need some assurances from Reigns that he plans to come to school more often than he normally does should he win the belt. Raw is in dire need of some more energy, and he could bring that if he's willing to fly in more than once every couple of months.
Sadly for Punk's fans, he's probably better in the role of chaser than chased. Bradley Walsh would love him. Do you want to face 'The Vixen' or 'Pepsi Phil'? One for the UK game show enthusiasts out there.
