Roman Reigns’ prolonged reign in the WWE is really in jeopardy as The Bloodline is about to disintegrate and Cody Rhodes is advancing forcefully to put an end to the Reigns era. In the midst of everything, The Tribal Chief might even decide to take an extended break if he comes up short at WrestleMania.
This week’s RAW featured Roman and Cody in the Enterprise Center in St. Louis, Missouri, in advance of their match at WrestleMania. The head of the table and Cody argued verbally, exchanging sharp comments.

Is the reign of Roman Reigns coming to end?
Roman Reigns has held the WWE Universal Championship for the longest time, having reigned for more than 900 days. Roman’s fortress will fall one day, too, like every king and emperor. A new king will take his place, and the world of wrestling will find a new hero. How soon will that occur?

Speculation in the media is that Cody Rhodes will put a stop to Roman’s rule. During WrestleMania 39, The American Nightmare and Reigns are expected to square off. The winner of this year’s Royal Rumble has already given a dire warning to the reigning WWE Universal Champion in advance of their upcoming confrontation.

It’s debatable if Cody will be able to dethrone Roman, and we won’t know for sure for a few weeks. But, a report from WrestleVotes via GiveMeSport claims that The Tribal Chief will undoubtedly take an extended break after WrestleMania.
“I can imagine there’s probably a significant break, at least a month even longer, until there’s a major show that requires Roman Reigns. You may not see him until SummerSlam though. He’ll be away for a little bit. WWE wanted to make Roman Reigns a major deal, and they did. Now every time you put on a major show, you need your major star.”
Cody Rhodes sees the Legacy version of himself in Solo Sikoa which is why he told him that he wasn't ready.

The SoFi stadium in Inglewood, California will host WrestleMania 39, titled “WrestleMania Goes Hollywood,” beginning on April 1.
Do you think The American Nightmare Cody Rhodes will be capable of putting an end to Roman Reigns’ reign?
