WWE Fastlane 2016: 10 Things That Must Happen Tonight
3. The Wyatt Family Cost Brock Lesnar His Title Shot
Presenting any kind of multi-man scenario come WrestleMania 32 would dilute the story WWE seem determined to tell. Namely, Roman Reigns conquering Triple H and taking his place as the WWE World Heavyweight Champion for the bulk of 2016. Therefore, Brock Lesnar would badly overshadow Reigns and exist as an overwhelming fan favourite at 'Mania. 'The Beast' is earmarked for something else, or so it seems. It's no coincidence that Bray Wyatt and the rest of The Wyatt Family have been physically attacking him over the past while. It looks like it's either going to be Lesnar vs. Bray or Brock vs. Braun Strowman come WrestleMania, and most fans prefer the former over the latter choice. There's a simple way to write Lesnar out of the main event. He could be tearing through Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns, looking like he's on his way to victory. Then, The Wyatts could make their presence felt again, actually costing Brock the chance to win the match. That's cruel, and it furthers the story heading in to the bumper April 3 event.
