WWE’s reigning Undisputed Universal Champion, Roman Reigns, is a name that is currently dominating the pro wrestling industry.

However, recent comments from WWE Hall of Famer and Olympic Gold Medal winner, Kurt Angle, on his Kurt Angle Show podcast, suggest a future trajectory for Reigns that moves away from the wrestling ring and into the silver screen’‹’‹.

Kurt Angle Prediction: From WWE to Hollywood

Angle, who has a decorated career both in the wrestling world and beyond, had strong words about Reigns’ future (via WrestlingHeadlines): “Roman Reigns is not going to be in the company in the next five years. That kid is going to be a huge movie star,” Angle predicted. He further elaborated, stating, “It’s going to happen. It is. There’s no doubt. He’s got an incredible look, he’s talented, he’s smart. The kid’s going to be a movie star’‹.”

Reigns’ Potential for Stardom

Reigns has demonstrated his charisma, athleticism, and storytelling prowess in his WWE career. His captivating presence in the ring may well transition into a commanding presence on the big screen.

With Angle’s endorsement, it seems plausible that Reigns could follow in the footsteps of other WWE stars like Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson and John Cena, who have successfully made the leap to Hollywood.

If Angle’s predictions come true, the loss of Reigns would be a significant one for WWE. Reigns’ departure could cause a seismic shift in the company’s dynamic, necessitating the rise of new stars to fill his shoes.

However, it could also provide Reigns an opportunity to bring a broader audience to professional wrestling, much as The Rock has done with his successful film career.

Conclusion: A New Chapter for Reigns?

While it’s uncertain whether Reigns will transition into Hollywood within the predicted five-year timeframe, it’s clear that his potential is vast.

Angle’s words may well prove prophetic. If so, fans of both wrestling and cinema could have a lot to look forward to.

As Reigns’ story unfolds, one thing remains clear: his talent and charisma could very well make him a household name, whether in wrestling or on the big screen.
