By all accounts, it will be Braun Strowman who eventually replaces Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 36. Yes, the 'Monster Among Men' has been acting like a babyface in recent times but the loss of the Intercontinental Championship could have made something inside him snap. He was cheated out of the title in a three-on-one affair and it made him realize that he cannot play by the rules anymore.
And so, we could see him launch a dastardly attack on Roman Reigns to rule him out before WrestleMania 36. He could go on to become the Universal Champion at WrestleMania because Goldberg is a very expensive commodity and one wonders how much money Vince McMahon would be willing to invest in the living legend. So, when Roman Reigns does return he has a readymade feud with Braun Strowman just sitting there, waiting for him.
Somehow a heel Braun Strowman makes a lot more sense than a babyface one does, because of the way he looks and the way he wrestles.
