If there’s one match the average fan is excited for at WrestleMania 42, it is CM Punk vs. Roman Reigns for the World Heavyweight Championship. The main event of Mania: Night Two features two of WWE’s top Superstars, but it’s the genuine element of animosity that intrigues fans.
We knew that things would get personal quickly. However, the Voice of the Voiceless left the OTC speechless in their last encounter by mentioning Sika Anoa’i, Reigns’ deceased Hall of Fame father. The 2026 Men’s Royal Rumble winner will appear on the upcoming episode of RAW.
The OTC will respond to Punk’s comments about his father. Here, we delve into four ways Reigns could retaliate against the World Heavyweight Champion.
#4. Roman Reigns Brings Up CM Punk’s Father
Now that Punk has involved Reigns’ family, it only makes sense for the OTC to return the favor. Hence, we could see Reigns refer to the Straight Edge Superstar’s relationship with his father. As many avid fans might recall, Chris Jericho infamously brought up Punk’s blood relatives during their thrilling feud in 2012.
Punk adopts a Straight Edge lifestyle, which is an integral part of his onscreen character and personal life. However, his father had personal troubles with alcohol abuse; Y2J also alluded to this during his feud with Punk. An angered Roman Reigns could also adopt a similar strategy in response to the World Champion’s personal comments.
