Once Roman finally drops both titles, I can see him leaving. I mean, after such a long title reign, there's nothing much you can do after that. He'll still make appearances as a surprise in Royal Rumble matches or the occasional special appearance or special attraction match, but as a full-timer, he's probably done after this.

Yes. This the run they sort of always wanted to give him but always had cold feet or something happened like when he had to leave for his cancer treatment.
He's done full time once he fully drops the title since he's basically already becoming part time now

Dude's gonna fight Dwayne in a "Hollywood on a Pole" match

Idk. It's like there's nothing left for him to do, and with his health he deserves "real" time with his family. However, I don't think he fits the hollywood mold quite like Rock and Cena.

I wish him nothing but health and happiness outside of WWE, but I never want to fxxxing see this dude again and will celebrate the day he walks away.

Maybe the only reason they can't have him lose is that in order to have him return after his leukemia he wanted to have a clause in his contract that he comes back for one last title reign and then calls it quit. But since they still want that Rock match they have to keep the titles on him until Rock finds the time and is in the mood.

Probably. He's making his money and splitting. Doesn't he have twins at home? Thanks to my sense of the passage of time, they're either 3 or 20, so....Anyway, yeah, he'll settle into a Cena like schedule after this run. He'll come back once or twice, but he's done after this contract.

Probably. I’d imagine they’re going to do the Rock match and then Roman starts transitioning to Hollywood. I mean, no one thought that Batista would succeed there and he’s doing just fine. Besides Roman has an automatic in with the Rock and looks a lot like Jason Mamoa, he’ll be okay. Probably come back as the nuclear option for someone’s feuds, do some six man’s with the Uso’s, and if Moxley returns anytime soon surely something with the Shield.

Probably, or else being their new Undertaker who just comes back for big matches now and then, which, that's honestly fine.

HHH knows how to push ahead with a dominant heel champion. It's precisely the sort of reign Trips has done himself and has wet NWA dreams about.
Probably is it for Roman. Go home and be a family man - wheel him out for special matches if needs be but with what he's been through, let him enjoy his family life.

It has to be.
Roman seems to want to go part-time anyway, and you can't go back to this well so soon after building him up for such a big fall when HHH finally finds the will to do it.

Ehhhh..gun to my head, he’s got a huge face run (where it actually works) left in him after this peaks at WrestleMania. Idk. It's like there's nothing left for him to do, and with his health he deserves "real" time with his family. However, I don't think he fits the hollywood mold quite like Rock and Cena. Yeah, I’m not entirely convinced he’ll work in Hollywood either. Maybe. His heel run shows how charismatic he can be and how good his delivery can be..but it’s a very specific character. He’ll have to show range I think. Similarly to how Rock eventually did and how Cena’s doing.

I fully expect him to lose the titles to vacant; thus rendering the last couple years "building heat" completely worthless. A fitting end.

I assume so but I’ll miss him when he’s gone. While I think last night was the perfect time to pull the trigger on Drew I can’t deny that Roman has been incredible from a promo and match standpoint since I started watching again last July.

It'll be the end of him as a full-timer (although that's basically already been over anyway). I think he'll lose the title at Wrestlemania then disappear before eventually returning as a babyface to confront whoever the top heel is at the time. I see him having an Edge type schedule, working all the bigger PPVs and occasional TV matches with a good amount of time off in between feuds.

I honestly think this is it for title reigns but goddamn there’s a potential babyface run after this that has the chance to be huge

It would seem like it because what would another run mean after this one? The only way I could see him getting one of them back is a major injury situation to someone else and they need him to be champion to put someone else over.
