Universal Champion Roman Reigns is set to defend his championship in the main event of Night 2 of WrestleMania 37 in a triple threat match against Edge and Daniel Bryan. Edge won the 2021 men's Royal Rumble match and later chose to face Roman Reigns for the Universal Championship at the Show of Shows. This was supposed to be a one-on-one match originally.
However, Daniel Bryan turned the clock back to 2014 and once again made his way into the WrestleMania main event. After his match with Roman Reigns at WWE Fastlane 2021 ended controversially, Bryan was added to the match between Roman Reigns and Edge at WrestleMania 37, making it a triple threat.
There's a lot of bad blood between these three men and it is incredibly tough to predict the outcome of the match. Let's take a look at five possible finishes when these three collide this Sunday. Comment down below and let us know who you think will walk out of WrestleMania 37 with the Universal Championship around his waist.
#5 Daniel Bryan dethrones Roman Reigns as the new Universal Champion by pinning Edge
Daniel Bryan's inclusion into this match has been met with mixed responses. A portion of the WWE Universe is happy to see him get this opportunity, while others believe that a one-on-one match between Roman Reigns and Edge would have been better.
The common assumption is that Daniel Bryan heads into this match with the least chance of walking out with the Universal Championship. However, history has told us never to count him out. WWE showed faith in him by adding him to this blockbuster match. Would they go all the way and put the Universal Championship on him at WrestleMania 37?
Even if WWE does plan to go down that path, it's unlikely that Roman Reigns will be the one to take the pin.
#4 Edge wins the Universal Championship, Roman Reigns does not take the pin
Roman Reigns vs. Edge was nothing short of a dream match a little over a year ago. Fast forward to WrestleMania 37, it will turn into reality with Daniel Bryan added into the mix as well.
Edge's WWE return has been miraculous and the Rated-R Superstar has shown how much he loves the business. It was on April 11, 2011 when Edge announced his retirement from in-ring competition during Monday Night RAW in one of the most emotional moments in WWE history. Exactly 10 years from that day, on April 11, 2021, Edge will be challenging for the Universal Championship against Roman Reigns and Daniel Bryan in the main event of WrestleMania 37.
It would be poetic justice for Edge to win the Universal Championship exactly 10 years after announcing his retirement. Moreover, Edge has really impressed fans and quieted his critics ever since his return in 2020. He deserves to have one final run with a world title on SmackDown and that could start at WrestleMania 37. Again, even if he does win the match, it is highly unlikely that Roman Reigns will be taking the pin.
#3 Roman Reigns defeats Edge and Daniel Bryan after being taken to the limit
Roman Reigns vs. Edge vs. Daniel Bryan is a match that could steal the show on any given night. It truly deserves to be the main event of WrestleMania 37 because of the depth of storyline, interesting character arcs, and the factor of unpredictability.
Roman Reigns has been exceptional as a heel ever since his return to WWE at last year's SummerSlam. The entire Tribal Chief and Head of the Table gimmick, while pairing him up with Paul Heyman, has been a masterclass. While there has been some criticism recently about the repetitive segments, there's still a lot that WWE could explore with this persona of Roman Reigns.
Roman Reigns is one of just a few champions who has a real chance of retaining at WrestleMania 37. However, fans can expect Daniel Bryan and Edge to take him to his limit, if not beyond that. If WWE has other major plans for the Tribal Cheif in the post-WrestleMania period, he might walk out of WrestleMania still the Universal Champion.
#2 Jimmy Uso returns to cost Roman Reigns his Universal Championship
One of the biggest questions heading into this match is what would happen if Roman Reigns loses the Universal Championship? Should he lose the title, how would WWE continue his character and the entire Head of the Table"= storyline? One possible way could be the return of Jimmy Uso.
Jey Uso has played a massive role in the storyline of Roman Reigns in the last few months. After Jimmy Uso's injury, WWE looked to have no plans for Jey initially, but the second half of 2020 saw him emerge as a major singles competitor. While Jey first stood up against Roman Reigns, he ultimately ended up joining hands with him, acknowledging him as the Tribal Chief.
But Jimmy Uso definitely has some bad blood with Roman Reigns. It was at WWE Hell in a Cell 2020 where Jimmy returned to save his brother Jey from the wrath of Reigns. While he did save his brother, Roman Reigns ended up attacking him.
Jimmy Uso hasn't been seen on WWE TV since then but he could return at WrestleMania 37 for revenge and cost Roman Reigns his Universal Championship. This way, WWE could further the Head of the Table gimmick while also taking the Universal Championship off Roman Reigns.
#1 Jimmy Uso returns but helps Roman Reigns retain his Universal Championship, joining hands with him
Earlier, we discussed Jimmy Uso returning at WrestleMania 37 to cost Roman Reigns his match and the Universal Championship. But what if Jimmy Uso returns and instead of betraying Reigns, he ends up joining hands with him?
Ever since the heel turn of Roman Reigns, the WWE Universe has wanted to see a heel version of The Bloodline faction with Roman Reigns, Jey Uso, and Jimmy Uso dominating the entire roster. However, Jimmy Uso's injury has prevented anything of this sort from happening so far. But could this be the plan for the post-WrestleMania season?
Jimmy Uso joining hands with Roman Reigns opens up a plethora of new directions for the Head of the Table character. The Usos could also get back to their usual best and win the Tag Team Championships on SmackDown. Down the line, Roman Reigns could kick The Usos out of the faction, leading to The Rock coming back to set up the dream match between him and Reigns, possibly at next year's WrestleMania.
