Roman Reigns Reflects on WrestleMania 40, Discusses The Rock and Cody Rhodes
Roman Reigns shared his thoughts on his WrestleMania 40 matches involving Cody Rhodes and The Rock during a recent interview on the SI Media podcast. When asked if he felt disappointed facing Rhodes instead of The Rock in the main event, Reigns said it did not matter to him as long as he was in the spotlight. He described himself as "the guy everyone wanted to dance with," emphasizing that his goal was defending his title regardless of the opponent.
Reigns noted the WWE’s efforts to stop him and The Bloodline from dominating history. He explained that whether facing Rhodes or The Rock, his challenge remained the same. During WrestleMania 40, The Rock and Reigns teamed up to defeat Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins on Night 1, but Rhodes won the WWE Championship by beating Reigns on Night 2. The anticipated match between The Rock and Reigns did not take place at the event.
Reigns left open the possibility of a future match with The Rock, saying that if fans show enough enthusiasm, WWE would consider making it happen. He highlighted the importance of responding to what the audience desires and praised The Rock, referring to him as "The People’s Champ." The Rock made an unexpected return to WWE programming last month but has not revealed future plans or appeared further since.
Tommy Fury Shows Interest in WWE Career
Boxer Tommy Fury hinted at a potential future in professional wrestling with WWE during a recent YouTube video. Fury, who is 25 years old and the younger brother of former world heavyweight boxing champion Tyson Fury, attended a WWE event in the United Kingdom. While backstage, he interacted with WWE stars including Randy Orton and Cody Rhodes.
Fury expressed appreciation for the WWE’s hospitality and stated he looks forward to possibly "climbing through those ropes one day." His undefeated professional boxing record and connection to the Paul family — particularly as the only fighter to defeat Jake Paul — suggest he could be a compelling addition to WWE. A crossover feud involving Fury and the Paul brothers, including WWE Superstar Logan Paul, could attract a broader audience.
Oba Femi Missing from NXT After Recent Losses
Oba Femi, former NXT North American Champion, has not appeared in recent NXT tapings following his losses to Tony D’Angelo. Reports from Fightful Select indicate Femi has been absent since his defeat at NXT Halloween Havoc on October 27, where he lost the title after a record 272-day reign. He also lost a rematch to D’Angelo at the event.
The reasons for Femi’s absence remain unclear. It could reflect time off to recover from injuries or a strategic decision by NXT management to let the impact of his losses settle. Since debuting in April 2023, Femi impressed fans by winning the NXT Breakout Tournament and capturing the North American Championship. When he returns, he could be a key contender for the NXT Championship, given his strong showing prior to the setbacks.
