Backstage News on WWE plans for Brock Lesnar vs. Roman Reigns



[ad_1]

WWE reportedly plans for another match between Brock Lesnar and WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns.

Lesnar vs Reigns is expected to headline the WWE Crown Jewel event in Saudi Arabia on Thursday, October 21, but the Wrestling Observer Bulletin reports that this is not a one-off show between the top two stars.

Lesnar vs. Reigns has been a rumored WrestleMania 38 match for 2022, with The Rock vs. Reigns, so there’s a chance the Crown Jewel match will turn into a Lesnar vs. Reigns rematch next April.

It seems likely that Reigns will retain the Universal Title at Crown Jewel, but WWE could win the title from Lesnar or some sort of contested decision to build the rematch at WrestleMania 38 in Dallas. They can also keep the feud alive with the Paul Heyman angle as the script is written to tease that Heyman might work as a double agent, so you don’t know who he’ll end up siding with when the time comes.

It is not known if Lesnar will be back on WWE TV before Crown Jewel, but it was announced during WWE Draft that he is now a free agent.

Stay tuned for more.
