Everyone believes that Roman Reigns making the jump to Hollywood is inevitable. Adding to the list of believers is Kurt Angle. He recently spoke about The Tribal Chief during his podcast in a way that concerned John Cena. The Olympic Gold medalist hailed The Cenation Leader for having the most successful WWE career of all time. Also, Kurt talked about his meteoric rise, which ended up making him a 16-time World Champion.
While speaking on The Kurt Angle Show podcast, The WWE Veteran said that Roman Reigns could break John Cena’s record if he decides to stay with WWE. However, doubting the case, the Olympian predicted that Reigns would enter Hollywood. Kurt Angle was aware of Roman’s already-achieved pinnacle in WWE which made him say so.
That being said, Roman Reigns will definitely jump ship to Hollywood, seeking superstardom. His cousin Dwayne Johnson, a.k.a. The Rock, did the same thing. The Tribal Chief will follow in his cousin’s footsteps sooner or later. WWE CEO Nick Khan previously stated that they’re preparing Reigns for Hollywood. There’s so much money on the table for him to simply ignore.
When it comes to what would be the ideal time for Reigns to pursue Hollywood, the window ain’t far away. At present, Roman is amidst a generational World Title run. At most, he’s going to stick around till next year’s WrestleMania, and that’s it. He might very well drop the title in Philadelphia, freeing him up for ventures outside of WWE.

Roman Reigns & Jey Uso will battle at SummerSlam

This week on SmackDown, Roman Reigns discussed the Rules of Engagement with Jey Uso. The latter informed his cousin that Reigns would indeed defend his title at SummerSlam against him. More importantly, Reigns’ chiefdom will be on the line too. Judging by the order of their elders, the Anoa’i stalwarts agreed on the matter.
The deal saw Reigns & Jey bump their foreheads out of respect. However, that thing didn’t catch well with Solo Sikoa. He almost took out Jey Uso with the Samoan Spike. Taking immediate notice, Reigns caught Sikoa and stopped him from doing so. By the looks of things, the Street Champion wasn’t thrilled. That wasn’t the first time Reigns had applied brakes to The Bloodline’s Enforcer.
One would need to wonder where Solo’s allegiance lies after all. Although he obeyed his Tribal Chief last night, Sikoa is too hungry for that Ula Fala. At SummerSlam, it would be extremely interesting to see how The Enforcer affects the outcome of Reigns vs. Jey. At some point, the Meanest of the Bunch must break free.
