Vince McMahon Leaning Toward Title vs Title Match For Roman Reigns & Brock Lesnar

Roman Reigns was on a roll since his return to the company back at WWE SummerSlam in 2020. He returned as the Tribal Chief and truly reinvented himself. The change was several years in the making as fans clamored for it for so long. 

The Head of the Table has certainly been very dominant as the WWE Universal Champion as he has remained the champion for well over a year now. It is unlikely he will be losing the title anytime soon from the looks of it. He has competed against several top WWE Superstars throughout that time.

Paul Heyman betrayed Brock Lesnar at the WWE Royal Rumble event, costing him the WWE Championship against Bobby Lashley as he aligned himself to Roman Reigns again.

With Brock Lesnar being part of the WWE Championship Elimination Chamber match, fans have been wondering whether WWE will have him become the WWE Champion again and set up a title vs title match at WrestleMania 38.

According to Dave Meltzer in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, several members of the WWE creative team are under the impression that Vince McMahon will approve of a title vs title match between Lesnar and Reigns.

The feeling internally was Vince was leaning in the direction of title vs. title, which would mean the originally planned WWE title match, whatever it would have been, is now off. Big E being moved to Smackdown permanently and put back with the New Day as a tag team looks to have ended his push as a singles champion level guy. The plan on Smackdown was to put him in with the New Day and he wasn’t brought over specifically to be an opponent for Reigns, although obviously that could still happen simply due to the fact Reigns constantly will need new opponents over the next year and they have depth issues when it comes to challengers and he at least was on top for much of 2021 so has some singles main event credibility.

We will have to wait and see if the company will end up turning the match into a title vs title affair, as fans may or may not necessarily be into that idea.
