Kevin Nash firmly believes that CM Punk will defeat Roman Reigns in the main event of WWE WrestleMania 42 for the World Heavyweight Championship.
The reason pointed out by the WWE Hall of Famer is Reigns’ reduced schedule, which is part of his current contract. Nash also stated that, beyond his confidence, he is rooting for the “Second City Savior” to win.
On a recent episode of the Kliq THIS Podcast, Nash said:
“I have to have [CM] Punk go over because Roman [Reigns] has stated too many times that he’s a part-time wrestler, a full-time father and husband… They don’t run 300 days a year, they still, man, they, when they run, they fu**ing run. And it’s on planes and it’s, you know, you’re in Berlin one night and Copenhagen the next and Italy the next, and you got to have, you got to have that strap out there.”
The rivalry between Punk and Reigns has become increasingly personal in WWE, shifting between mind games and brutal attacks. Last week, for example, Punk got revenge on Reigns on Monday Night RAW by throwing him onto the announce table.
However, after three consecutive weeks of confrontations, Reigns is not advertised for tonight’s show in Houston, Texas, unlike Punk, who is scheduled to appear.
