WWE Denies Connection Between Company Sale & Roman Reigns’ WrestleMania 39 Win

WrestleMania 39 is over, and fans are still digesting what went down during this year’s showcase of the immortals. The company’s sale to Endeavor is also a popular conversation point, but you shouldn’t see the two as related at all.

Cody Rhodes was unable to beat Roman Reigns at WrestleMania Sunday, as a company sale was looming. Despite the fact that it might fit a certain narrative, The American Nightmare’s loss to The Tribal Chief was not connected with WWE’s new ownership.

Sean Sapp reported behind Fightful’s paywall that WWE’s decision to have Roman Reigns beat Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania had absolutely nothing to do with the company sale.

We asked if a looming deal had anything to do with Roman Reigns retaining the championship over Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania and were told “absolutely not.”
