#3. Hope isn't true: A drastic change in plans with Brock Lesnar's WWE title win?
The initial rumors stated that WWE intended to make Roman Reigns vs Brock Lesnar a multi-match series culminating at WrestleMania 38. Brock Lesnar's sudden WWE title win led many to believe that the originally planned WrestleMania main event has been changed.
That isn't necessarily true. Bryan Alvarez stated that WWE is potentially looking to book a champion vs champion match for WrestleMania 38. According to him, Roman Reigns vs Brock Lesnar could still be on the cards:
“My presumption [and] I don’t have this 100 percent confirmed. What people have told me they believe is what’s going on here. Here’s the thing with WWE, everybody. When there’s a storyline involving Roman and Brock, the people that know where this is going are Roman, Brock and Vince and probably Paul Heyman and maybe Bruce Prichard. I can talk to 100 people there and 100 of them would tell me, ‘I think this is what’s happening but I don’t know for sure.’ But I think that the idea here is that they are doing champion vs. champion at WrestleMania. Roman would be the SmackDown Champion, Brock would be the RAW Champion. Either a unification match or just champion vs. champion like they do at Survivor Series,” said Bryan Alvarez.

We hope this isn't true because it seems wasteful of one match. There is the opportunity to simply go with Brock Lesnar vs Bobby Lashley and Roman Reigns vs Drew McIntyre as the two marquee main events for WrestleMania.
