#3 Roman Reigns reveals how long he plans to wrestle in WWE

In an exclusive interview with People, Roman Reigns recently discussed his mental health and fitness routine ahead of WWE WrestleMania 37.

Reigns spoke about his training regimen with bodybuilder Neil Hill and revealed that he plans to maximize his potential over the next 15 years:

“I told Neil when we first met over a year ago, that I want to grind it out for the next 15 years. I want to maximize my potential for the next 15 years. And I told him, ‘This is who I am, as a performer, as a talent, but I also am a father, I’m a husband. I wear all these different hats.’ And man, we’ve been on an unbelievable journey thus far.”

Clearly, Reigns does not plan to stop wrestling anytime soon.

On the second night of WrestleMania 37, Roman Reigns will put his Universal Championship on the line against Edge and Daniel Bryan in a triple threat match.


#4 Big E hoped to wrestle AEW's Christian Cage over the WWE Intercontinental Championship

Speaking to Sportskeeda Wrestling's Rick Ucchino, Big E mentioned Christian Cage on the subject of this year's WWE Royal Rumble event.

The two stars were scheduled to face each other during Big E's first Intercontinental Championship reign in 2014. However, the match did not take place due to Christian's concussion-related issues.

When Christian returned to in-ring action in WWE earlier this year, Big E hoped the match would come to fruition during his second and current Intercontinental title reign:

"Christian's last match was a number #1 qualifier match that he won to face me. Unfortunately, he had issues with injuries and concussions, and thank god he's cleared now and ready to go."
"But I was really hoping for, obviously it's not really a possibility right now, but I was hoping to get an opportunity to run it back with Christian."

Christian Cage is currently affiliated with AEW, while Big E will defend his Intercontinental title against Apollo Crews in a Nigerian Drum Fight at WrestleMania 37.
