WWE Survivor Series: WarGames ended on a controversial note, as a mystery attacker helped Team Vision secure the victory over Team CM Punk in the Men’s WarGames Match. Following the bout, Roman Reigns had an intense confrontation with Cody Rhodes, which had fans buzzing.
The five-on-five match has opened up several directions for storylines going forward. In this listicle, we will look at five storylines the Triple H-led creative team could book after the Men’s WarGames Match at Survivor Series 2025:
Thanks for the submission!
#5. Roman Reigns’ conflict could grow
Roman Reigns joined Team CM Punk simply to stand by his cousins, The Usos. The OTC is a prizefighter. If it weren’t for family, Reigns likely wouldn’t have teamed up with Punk and Cody Rhodes.
After the Men’s WarGames Match, The Head of the Table was seen sitting in the middle, between the two rings. One of them had The Usos, while the other one had Rhodes and Punk. It was certainly a poetic moment that showcased the two choices Reigns seemingly has.
Either continue to stand by his family, or go after gold. Following WWE Survivor Series: WarGames, the Triple H-led creative team could explore Reigns’ inner conflict, adding an intriguing layer to his character.
#4. Roman Reigns vs. Jey Uso
While Reigns may be in a conflict, Jey Uso’s stance has been clear: He wants to regain the World Heavyweight Championship. However, The YEET Master has failed to accomplish his goal despite several attempts.
If Reigns decides to pursue the world title, Jey could take issue with it and step in his way. While they teamed up last weekend, tension had been simmering between them due to Jey accidentally costing Reigns the match against Bronson Reed at Crown Jewel.
Therefore, we could see another feud between the OG Bloodline members after the events at WWE Survivor Series: WarGames.
#3. Jey Uso, the new Tribal Chief?
During Roman Reigns’ entrance at WWE Survivor Series: WarGames, fans noticed that he wasn’t wearing the Ula Fala, the symbol of leadership in the Anoa’i family. A few months ago, it appeared that seeds were being planted for Reigns’ grooming of Jey Uso as the new Tribal Chief.
Since the cousins had a falling out at Crown Jewel, the storyline could take a drastic turn. If the OTC and Jey come to blows due to the World Heavyweight Championship, The YEET Master could take it a step further and challenge Reigns’ position as The Head of the Table.
#2. Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes could turn heel
Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns’ confrontation after the Men’s WarGames Match has fans excited for a potential third match between them. That said, if that is indeed the plan, the roles could be reversed heading into the rubber match.
Since Reigns has adopted the role of a babyface, The American Nightmare could turn to the dark side. Rhodes needs a fresh direction, as his second reign as Undisputed WWE Champion has been underwhelming thus far. A Cody Rhodes heel turn before a potential rivalry with the OTC could make it more exciting.
#1. The Rock and Cody Rhodes could join forces
The Rock asked Cody Rhodes for his soul at Elimination Chamber 2025, but The American Nightmare refused the offer, leading to John Cena taking the opportunity to shake hands with The Final Boss.
If The QB1 turns to the dark side, he could “sell his soul” to The Great One. Having The Rock by Cody’s side in a potential battle against Roman Reigns could make the third match between them a must-see affair.
