A massive update has surfaced on 'The Tribal Chief' Roman Reigns' potential opponent for WWE WrestleMania 42 at the Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.

With two options at hand, Reigns is expected to be in action against one of the champions in the main event of the Showcase of the Immortals.

The Royal Rumble 2026 displayed 30 superstars inside the ring, battling for a chance at the title of their own choosing. With major surprises and upstart athletes showcasing their potential, the men's Rumble outdid itself with a brilliant match.

The 'Original Tribal Chief' Roman Reigns made his long-awaited comeback at the men's Royal Rumble match. Reigns entered at number 26 and put up a dominant showcase, moving into the top four alongside Randy Orton, Gunther and Logan Paul.

Eventually, it came down to Roman Reigns and Gunther as the final two opponents. The Ring General came off a lot of momentum as he had retired 'The Phenomenal' AJ Styles earlier in the Premium Live Event.

Gunther had gained momentum early on after putting Roman Reigns into a sleeper hold. But Reigns turned things around and hit a spear, and tossed him over the top rope to secure the win.

Reigns has officially become a two-time Royal Rumble winner. The last time he had won was back in 2015.
