What’s Next for Roman Reigns?
Original Tribal Chief Roman Reigns has once again solidified his dominance in WWE, emerging victorious over Solo Sikoa during the premiere episode of Monday Night Raw on Netflix. In a gripping Tribal Combat Match, Reigns reclaimed the historic Ula Fala, a symbol of leadership and pride within the Anoa’i family. The bout, marked by brutal exchanges involving kendo sticks, interruptions, and unrelenting resilience, captivated fans worldwide and reaffirmed Reigns’ position as one of the most compelling figures in WWE today. With the Ula Fala now back in his possession, Reigns wasted no time declaring his intent to participate in the 2025 Royal Rumble match.
This announcement was made through his trusted advisor, Paul Heyman, which has sent shockwaves through the WWE Universe. Alongside other participants such as John Cena, LA Knight, Jey Uso, and CM Punk, Heyman announced that Reign’s sights on the WWE Championship are known after announcing he will enter the Royal Rumble. Adding to the intrigue, Heyman was seen later commending Reigns after winning his bout with Sikoa, urging him to set a date for the world to acknowledge him as Tribal Chief. Reigns, exuding confidence and authority, announced January 27th, 2025, as the day he would ascend to this monumental recognition. In a heartfelt interview, Reigns expressed his gratitude for receiving the Ula Fala from none other than Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, highlighting the importance of legacy and family in his journey.
Roman Reigns faces an uncertain path in WWE despite making his championship aspirations clear. The unresolved tension between Solo Sikoa and the rest of the Bloodline raises questions about whether their internal feud has truly ended or merely reached a temporary pause. With Reigns’ dominant history, he remains a target for top-tier competitors on the SmackDown roster. As the road to the Royal Rumble intensifies, questions linger about what lies ahead for Reigns. Will this match further cement his legacy by regaining the Undisputed WWE Championship once again? One thing remains certain—when Roman Reigns steps into the ring, he will be acknowledged as the head of the table.
