8 Ideas For The Main Event Of WrestleMania 31

5. Have Paul Heyman Turn On Lesnar, Join Up With Reigns

The Philly crowd's reaction towards Roman Reigns carried over to Hartford, Connecticut for Thursday Night Smackdown, the first live show since the Royal Rumble. Reigns came out to a great deal of boo's from a crowd that would probably be considered less aggressive than a Philadelphia crowd. That has to tell you something that it wasn't just the normally heel-favored crowd that disliked how the Rumble match went down. Most will expect that Brock Lesnar is going to be cheered and Roman Reigns is going to be boo'd at Wrestlemania. Since that is almost all but certain, why not pull a huge swerve and have Paul Heyman turn on Brock Lesnar (the past) for Roman Reigns (the future) as a way to ensure Heyman's big checks are continuing to come in as he is betting on the younger upstart Reigns to be the champion next. Brock then becomes the sympathetic babyface that will be on a non-stop tear all the way to Wrestlemania 31; while Reigns is now a heel that will justifiably be boo'd. This is perfect if Lesnar is not re-signing because Reigns has a much needed mouthpiece with the best talker in the business in Heyman, who needs to be paired with someone after Lesnar leaves.
