WWE is about to kick off the road to WrestleMania with the Raw debut episode on Netflix on January 6th before getting to the Royal Rumble.
As previously reported, WWE is not planning to do a match between John Cena and Logan Paul at the event. However, there have been discussions among those in WWE about a potential CM Punk vs. Roman Reigns showdown.
PWInsider.com reports, “Currently, the majority of the talk has circled around the idea of Cody Rhodes vs. Cena at WrestleMania for the WWE Championship.” They’ve heard the bout mentioned by several sources over the last two weeks, including Thursday.
The report noted, “It should be pointed out that many of those sources have noted that everything is subject to change, especially if The Rock descends down from “Mountain Rock” (as one person joked) and wanted to work with either Cody or Cena at Wrestlemania, at which point any creative plans would be re-worked to fit into Rock’s vision.”
Rhodes is currently in a feud with Kevin Owens, while Cena is slated to kick off his retirement tour on January 6th.
