Roman Reigns and Finn Balor are both determined to win the WWE World Heavyweight Championship, currently held by CM Punk. Punk, who has already won the title twice since his return to the WWE, is adamant about retaining the championship at any cost.
Punk’s current reign has seen him defend the title against Bron Breakker, Finn Balor, and AJ Styles, with the match against Balor ending controversially. On RAW, Punk issued a warning to both Reigns and Balor, expressing his willingness to do whatever it takes to hold on to the World Heavyweight Championship.
In a recent promo, Punk declared, “I fight for this. This belongs to me and you won’t take it from my cold, dead fingers.” He made it clear that he is ready to take on any challenge to protect his title.
Last week, Reigns won the 2026 Men’s Royal Rumble Match and was interrupted by Punk, leading to a heated exchange between the two. The OTC decided to challenge Punk for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship.
Punk, however, still has unfinished business with Balor and requested a rematch with him at the Elimination Chamber Premium Live Event. He then shifted his focus to Reigns, setting the stage for a potential showdown between the two at WrestleMania 42.
In a recent interview, Punk claimed that he pushes his opponents to elevate their game when facing him in the ring. He specifically mentioned Reigns, stating that a “levelled up” version of him would be a formidable opponent. Punk emphasized the importance of facing the best in order to prove himself as the Best In The World.
As Punk prepares to face Balor at Elimination Chamber, his ultimate goal is to go head-to-head with Reigns at WrestleMania. The anticipation for their potential match is high, with fans eagerly awaiting a showdown between two of the biggest names in WWE.
With tensions running high and the stakes raised, the road to WrestleMania promises to be electrifying as Punk, Reigns, and Balor vie for the coveted WWE World Heavyweight Championship. The wrestling world is buzzing with excitement as these three superstars prepare to clash in the ring.
