Jeff Hardy, let's end this title reign baby! It would be so depressing if Jeff Hardy of all people was the one to end his reign. So I'd say that actually gives it a decent chance to happen.

R-Truth should end the reign with a roll up pin.

Remember if it's Brock/Reigns at Mania and Roman gets his win it'll be 1-1-1 in WM matches between Brock and Roman. So we'll probably get it at again Mania 41 or something 🤣
31: match became triple threat. no winner.
34: Brock wins.
38: Roman wins?

It feels like they are setting it up for Brock to win it on January 1st and then Roman will win it back at Wrestlemania.

Sheesh! I like Roman and his character and all, but just end the pain already.

I can only imagine once he loses it they begin to hot shot it a bit, Drew needs to win at least one of his never ending title shots, Owens will probably get a reign, Rollins is overdue, loyalty/thank you reigns for Orton/Kofi/Miz/Rey could be penciled in, Woods/Riddle/Zayn could be built up. There's always AJ who makes a great 'break in case of emergency' wrestler for any situation. Say he loses it at mania and takes a bit of time off then 4-5 champions in the period between WM 38 and 39. WWE title will probably get similar treatment. They may want to counter AEW having their champs have long reigns as well.

Grats Roman! You are the main reason the last time I watched a WWE show was in October. Previously I had watched continuously since the mid 90's.
Cena writing "JBL IS POOPY" was less lame and forced than Roman.

Back in the day Bruno Sammartino and Hulk Hogan he!d the title for years because they consistently drew crowds and made the company money.
Now Roman Reigns holds the title for todays equivalent of years in those days. He seems to have no effect on ratings. The company makes money no matter who holds the belt. IMO the only reason he holds the title so long is laziness. They dont need to create interesting stories or characters to make money so why bother. Just stick the belt on Reigns and leave it.

The only reason to keep the belt on him was laziness and apathy.

So Roman Reigns ends 2021 at 488+ days as champion. The first calendar year champion since CM Punk held the WWE title for all of 2012.

I know most people are over this, but I'm still loving this title Reign. I hope he retains tonight and keeps going.

I want him to win tonight too, because ending a near 500 day reign on Brock would be a huge waste. And totally what WWE would do, so its going to happen.
