Last week on Raw, Roman Reigns was extremely angry as Brock Lesnar decided not to show up for two weeks in a row. He engaged in a verbal fight with the boss, Vince McMahon, and was suspended temporarily. Further, Mr. McMahon gave us his “word” that Brock Lesnar will definitely show up on Raw the following Monday.

Paul Heyman should kick-off the proceedings. He will mention how Roman Reigns was out of line in the way he dealt with this whole situation, which proves Reigns has no respect for the father of WrestleMania, Vince McMahon. Heyman will continue to state that “maturity” is what Roman Reigns lacks and that is what proves he is not championship material and he shouldn’t be the face of the WWE.

Ultimately, Heyman will mention how Brock Lesnar respects Mr. McMahon and Lesnar will never disrespect Mr. McMahon, unlike Roman Reigns. At this point, Mr. McMahon would make his way to the ring and remind Heyman that Lesnar delivered an F5 to him in 2013 which resulted in McMahon’s hip surgery.

'The Beast Incarnate' makes his way to the ring, making people sit at the edge of their seats. Being the advocate he is, Paul Heyman will present Lesnar’s case in front of Mr. McMahon about how “busy” Brock Lesnar was for the past two weeks. Not to mention, the glory and money his client brings to the table.

Despite being temporarily suspended, there is (as Mr. McMahon would like to say) “No Chance” Roman Reigns is going to miss his one-on-one confrontation with Brock Lesnar. 'The Big Dog' has been waiting for two weeks in a row and definitely won’t want to wait anymore.

Reigns will engage in a physical confrontation with Brock Lesnar and shall be successful in hitting him with a spear.

Mr. McMahon is not going to take an exception to the fact that Reigns showed up despite being temporarily suspended and speared Brock Lesnar. He will mention that Reigns was temporarily suspended, but still has earned the right to face Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania for the Universal Championship. However, if Reigns doesn’t want to get permanently suspended, he must win at WrestleMania.

Vince McMahon adds the stipulation to the match that Roman Reigns will be fired if Reigns doesn’t win at WrestleMania.

This could finally be the moment when the crowd decides to switch sides. They might finally give a (desperately needed) pop for Roman Reigns. If this happens, it’s going to be a huge victory for WWE ahead of the Universal Championship match at WrestleMania.

Truth be told, WrestleMania is going to be the last resort for WWE to push Roman Reigns as the babyface. If the fans don’t accept him, they will have no other option but to turn him heel.

Reigns should end the segment with one more Superman Punch to the off-guard Brock Lesnar.
