10 Big Concerns Heading Into WWE Crown Jewel 2021
2. Brock Lesnar Squashes Roman Reigns
It could happen.
It shouldn't happen, but it could happen.
There is no denying the drawing power and the sheer excitement Brock Lesnar brings to the WWE. The man is a bonafide megastar and has been presented as one since 2002 when he burst onto the scene. It makes sense that he has returned to face his long time rival, Roman Reigns, who has dominated everyone before him.
The story that has played out between the two of them, with Paul Heyman weeping his way through their mind games, has been brilliant. Publicly committing himself to the 'Tribal Chief', Heyman has been great in the role. Even more so now that Lesnar has indicated they are still in cahoots.
Is Paul Heyman scheming against his boss? Or is Brock Lesnar just rocking the boat?
It's been the best storyline that Reigns has been involved in since his return and this match and build is finally a Reigns vs Lesnar match that deserves the WrestleMania main event.
It's such a shame then that it's happening in Saudi Arabia. Given that we have seen the Universal Championship change hands on the last two visits, and even witnessed Goldberg shock everyone by squashing the Fiend, it could happen.
Fingers crossed Reigns retains, but come on... there is a chance that Brock takes this thing in less than two minutes.
And that would suck!
