The Road to WrestleMania has already begun and it turns out that the 2022 Men’s Royal Rumble winner Brock Lesnar and Paul Heyman are reportedly pushing for a huge Title vs. Title match at WrestleMania 38. It was also noted that Brock Lesnar got a top WWE name fired.
Roman Reigns vs Brock Lesnar is likely to take place at WrestleMania 38
On this week’s edition of Monday Night RAW, Lesnar had named WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns as his WrestleMania 38 opponent. He also warned Bobby Lashley that he will be WWE Champion by then, making the WrestleMania 38 bout a Title vs. Title main event.
This led to Lesnar being added to the WWE Title Elimination Chamber on February 19 in Saudi Arabia, along with champion Lashley, AJ Styles, Austin Theory, Seth Rollins, and Riddle. It indicates that WWE might be heading towards that goal. WWE creative noted that the WWE Chairman & CEO Vince McMahon will make the call to go with the Title vs. Title match between Lesnar and Reigns, which explains why he put Lesnar in the Chamber, according to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter.
There are people within WWE who are also pushing for the Title vs. Title match to happen, including Lesnar and Heyman. It has been also reported that McMahon is leaning in the direction of Title vs. Title, which means the originally planned WWE Title match is off. It was reported at one point that WWE had no WrestleMania opponent in mind for Lashley when they had him win the title at the Royal Rumble last weekend.
It was also understood that WWE does have a plan for both titles on the Road to WrestleMania and that there are a number of twists & turns to come. It has been also slated that Reigns will defend his title against WWE Hall of Famer Bill Goldberg at Elimination Chamber in Saudi Arabia.
