WWE has reportedly pulled the plug on the planned trilogy match between Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania 42.
Reports suggest that creative risks and future scheduling played a major role in delaying this blockbuster fight, with eyes now turning to a potential clash in Saudi Arabia next year.
Currently, both Reigns and Rhodes are top “babyfaces” (fan favorites), and Triple H’s creative team is hesitant to pit them against each other right now. A loss for either star could damage their credibility at a time when the roster needs strong pillars. Protecting their aura remains a top priority for the company.
Strategically, saving this match for WrestleMania 43 in Saudi Arabia could turn it into a global spectacle. WWE views the Saudi events as major financial opportunities, and holding off on the Reigns-Rhodes finale could ensure a record-breaking payoff for their long-standing rivalry.
