It's unthinkable that WWE will let Roman Reigns play a small part at SummerSlam. Maybe Extreme Rules, but not August's pay-per-view. All that moaning and complaining Reigns has been doing on Raw about the Universal Title being "his" is surely leading to another match against Brock Lesnar.

Yes, you are entitled to roll your eyes.

WWE must have hoped that people would cut Reigns some slack or dampen their annoyance towards him when he was going up against heels like Jinder Mahal. They should have known better, but all this talk of Roman being a workhorse when Brock is busy working a part-time schedule and earning more than everyone else is deliberate.

It's also why WWE booked a screwy finish at the Greatest Royal Rumble in April. Roman, armed with an in-built argument against Brock's golden boy status, will more than likely be the one to face "The Beast" at SummerSlam in one last match before finally creative move on.
