Roman Reigns likely isn't thinking too far past this Sunday's clash with WWE World Heavyweight Champion Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 31, but he did touch on possibly facing his cousin Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson down the line.

Reigns spoke with The Sun in the U.K. and touched on possibly facing The Rock in the future, saying it's unlikely but anything can happen in the WWE.
"Where I'm at right now, with our family ties, I don't really see that happening, but if it did happen it would be in WWE," Reigns told the publication. "Going out on a limb right now, I'd say most likely not - but this is WWE, everything can change."

Reigns won the Royal Rumble Match in January and got some help from The Rock after he was attacked following the match.
While the two may not clash, they could very well be on the same card at WrestleMania 32 at AT&T Stadium in Texas as there are rumors The Rock may be the next man to take on Lesnar at the biggest show of the year in 2016.
For now, Reigns is focused on battling Lesnar for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania 31 this Sunday at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, Calif.
Reigns was asked who he would like to face in the main event at WrestleMania 32, and he turned to his former Shield partners Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins.
"It should be a Triple Threat match," Reigns said. "The Shield reunites to fight each other for one more night."
Reigns broke into the WWE as a member of The Shield with Ambrose and Rollins, but the group split up when Rollins turned heel last June.
All three will be busy Sunday as aside from Reigns being in the main event, Rollins will clash with Randy Orton and Ambrose will battle six other men in a Ladder Match for the Intercontinental Championship.
While Reigns hasn't gotten the fanfare he may have hoped from the WWE Universe, he knows how big a spot he is in and that destiny could await him Sunday night at WrestleMania.
"This is a huge role I'm in, it is a very big spot," Reigns said. "I represent so many people, especially in this spot - not only my bloodline and my family, I'm representing the whole company, the WWE brand. For me it's a huge responsibility. There are so many people that came before me, some of the greatest Superstars ever. My only hope is to carve out my own path, my own niche and be remembered for the things I want to be remembered for. I'm not trying to be anyone else or the next anybody. I just want to be the very first Roman Reigns. If I can leave my mark like that, if I can touch people's lives and help them out and bring smiles to faces, that's what I'm in it for."
