#1 Add a stipulation to Roman Reigns vs Brock Lesnar
The main event of SummerSlam is going to be Roman Reigns vs Brock Lesnar for the Universal Championship, again. This match has been overused for a while now. We have already seen it at two of the largest shows of the year, WrestleMania and Greatest Royal Rumble.
It heavily disappointed both times because fans just could not get invested in the story at all. They were mass contrasts to the main event of WrestleMania 31, which saw a hard-hitting fight between these two and had the crowd heavily invested. This match is set to be the finale of this controversial series, but it has just gotten much more interesting.
Paul Heyman's interview on Raw this week has single-handedly changed the level of excitement for this match, because of the previously unfathomable possibility of Heyman turning on Brock. There is a good chance we could see it happen.
Couple that with a potential Money in the Bank cash-in and suddenly, the Universal title match has become the must-see match at SummerSlam. The match may still feature the same, monotonous format as their other bouts so, in order to spice things up, a stipulation would be perfect.
We have already seen two WrestleMania main events between the pair, both of which featured lots of blood, and a Steel Cage match in Saudi Arabia. It is only logical that WWE makes Roman vs Brock at SummerSlam a Street Fight or likewise.
It will build up the intensity and introduce a number of fresh spots between the two in the ring. It also paves the way for a creative and satisfying finish to this multi-year story. WWE is finally in the right zone with Roman Reigns vs Brock Lesnar and hopefully, they do not mess it up.
