Paul Heyman Possibly Setting Up For Big Brock Lesnar WrestleMania 38 Angle

Brock Lesnar was not seen on WWE television after dropping the WWE Championship to Drew McIntyre at WrestleMania 36. That changed at WWE SummerSlam, where he made his shocking return to WWE television and confronted Roman Reigns. Brock officially came back as a babyface, much to the delight of fans.

Brock Lesnar squared off against Roman Reigns for the WWE Universal Championship at WWE Crown. He would be defeated by Reigns after interference from The Usos. Naturally, he was very irate at this turn of events.

Lesnar was suspended after attacking Adam Pearce and referees but he came back this month after the suspension was lifted. Since then Lesnar has been out for blood. On last week’s episode of Friday Night Smackdown, Roman Reigns did the unthinkable as he fired Paul Heyman. This certainly shocked many fans as well.

According to Dave Meltzer on Wrestling Observer Newsletter, WWE has big plans for Brock Lesnar and Roman Reigns’ feud. Should Lesnar win at WWE Day 1, then Paul Heyman is likely to double-cross Lesnar at WrestleMania 38 next year.

”There are different ways they can go, including a Lesnar title win to set up a WrestleMania rematch, or Lesnar on the verge of winning and it comes out that the Heyman firing was a ruse and he double-crosses Lesnar. The idea should be what is the best way to build WrestleMania. It could also be that a Heyman double-cross of Lesnar could be saved for WrestleMania.”

Roman Reigns is set to defend his WWE Universal Championship at WWE Day 1 on January 1st, 2022 against Brock Lesnar. It remains to be seen how long Roman Reigns will remain the champion.
