Three things are certain in life. Death, taxes, and WWE booking Roman Reigns vs. Brock Lesnar until the end of time. That's a feud the company has come back to over and over again, and they'll probably do it "one more time" in the future. However, maybe things will be different next time.

After all, Roman has turned into everything he hated about Brock.

Reigns used to criticise Lesnar for being a part-time World Champion who hid behind others. Fast forward to now, and that's precisely what he himself is. Christ, he even has Paul Heyman in tow! Actually, Roman is worse than Brock, because he has a faction of family members who do his bidding.

It's fun to look back on Reigns' 'tut-tutting' promos about Lesnar now, then realise that he's turned into the same kind of part-time elitist. That's not a dig, because Roman has been f*cking awesome as the 'Tribal Chief', but it is worth mentioning.
