Roman Reigns and CM Punk after WrestleMania 42

Roman Reigns leaving WrestleMania 42 with the title immediately keeps CM Punk tied to WWE's biggest story coming out of the weekend. Even in defeat, Punk was the kind of focal point that drew a public endorsement from Haliburton right after the show.

That matters because Punk's place in the main event picture did not cool off with the loss. If anything, the attention around the match suggests WWE still has strong momentum to carry Punk forward in the world title scene even after Reigns closed the night as champion.
