Three men. Countless championships. Infinite animosity. And now, one ring to contain the chaos.
Triple H, the man with the golden sledgehammer and a taste for big-money drama, has officially booked what might be the most combustible match in WrestleMania history: CM Punk vs. Seth Rollins vs. Roman Reigns—a Triple Threat showdown at WrestleMania 41 in Las Vegas. It’s The Architect, The Best in the World, and The O.T.C. (Original Tribal Chief), all aiming to rearrange each other’s faces in the desert.
Hunter dropped the bombshell on X like it was a main event mic drop:
“All three of these men have dominated our industry… They have had historic reigns as WWE Champion… and they all cannot wait to beat the other on the Grandest Stage of Them All. Rollins. Reigns. Punk. #WrestleMania”
🔥 Translation: Nobody’s leaving that ring unscarred.
Let’s talk context, because this one’s been simmering since 2012—the year The Shield debuted, CM Punk was WWE Champ for a year straight, and Seth Rollins still had knees made of real human tissue.

Rollins hates Punk like a toddler hates bedtime. Ever since Punk returned at Survivor Series 2023, Rollins has treated him like a virus in the locker room Wi-Fi. They finally faced off on Netflix’s premiere WWE Raw this January, where Punk scored the W. Then came the Steel Cage Match—Rollins got his win back, but only after Reigns showed up like an uninvited cousin at Thanksgiving with a chair and an agenda.
-
Reigns and Punk? Once reluctant allies in the WarGames trenches, now outright enemies. Reigns used Punk to regain his throne at Survivor Series, but Punk repaid him with an elimination at the Royal Rumble, because friendship in WWE lasts exactly as long as your entrance music.
-
Reigns and Rollins? Still haunted by the ghost of one very unprovoked chair shot from 2014 that turned The Shield into The Splinters.
Add all of this together and what do you get? Three men with ego, history, and unresolved violence stepping into the same ring. On either April 19 or 20, Las Vegas might just crack off the map entirely.
Let’s hope the ring is reinforced. And the egos? Unchecked.
