WWE is reportedly changing their WrestleMania 42 plans, so what does this mean for Drew McIntyre, Roman Reigns, Cody Rhodes, and more?

Roman Reigns has stayed as a top name in WWE even after losing his title to Cody Rhodes in 2024. Several stars have mentioned him as a dream opponent, and a former World Heavyweight Champion has just joined that list.

According to Dave Meltzer of Wrestling Observer Radio (h/t WrestlePurists ), Reigns vs. Rhodes is "probably not happening" at WrestleMania 42 on the heels of Rhodes dropping the WWE Championship to Drew McIntyre in a Three Stages of Hell match last week on SmackDown.

There's an old saying in the wrestling business, plans change, and that appears to be the case with one of the marquee matches that was reportedly being discuss

Brock Lesnar vs. Gunther screams special attraction. It's a modern dream match between two of WWE's stiffest strikers. It's a match that sells itself with minimal build required, a perfect way to utilize Lesnar's part-time status. It will be tremendously physical, and can further build Gunther's aura after he retired John Cena and Goldberg in 2025.

WWE looked to have pulled the plug on Cody Rhodes facing Roman Reigns for a third time at WrestleMania 42 but that might not be the case. Rhodes' loss to Drew McIntyre last Friday on SmackDown saw him drop the Undisputed WWE Championship.
