10 Reasons Lesnar vs Reigns II Must Happen At WrestleMania 32

10. There's A Built-In Storyline

A major plus of revisiting the Reigns-Lesnar program is that fans already know about the conflict between the two men - prior to WrestleMania 31, Lesnar was booked as an unstoppable force of destruction, while Reigns was portrayed as an up-and-comer destined to be WWE Champion. Almost a year later, not much has changed - sure, Reigns may have a five-minute-long reign as champion to his name, but he's still the guy who hasn't won the big one yet. Their previous battle adds to that perception, and gives Paul Heyman fodder for vicious promos on the former Shield member. He may admit that Reigns gave Lesnar a good fight at last year's show, but Heyman will stress that he couldn't get the job done then or since, and he's proven that he's not in Brock Lesnar's league. Many thought the feud between Lesnar and Reigns was lacking leading into WrestleMania 31; think of that as the introduction to a program between the two, while this WrestleMania is the denouement.
