How will Paul Heyman affect the main event of Crown Jewel 2021?

The WWE Universal Champion, Roman Reigns, will face his strongest challenger yet at Crown Jewel 2021. He is scheduled to face Brock Lesnar at the event.

Roman Reigns has been at the top of WWE since his heel turn in 2020. He has held the Universal Title for more than a year now and has successfully defeated major stars like John Cena, Kevin Owens, and Daniel Bryan.

On the other hand, Brock Lesnar is the only wrestler to have held the Universal Title longer than Roman Reigns. The Beast Incarnate had a 503-day reign as the Universal Champion in 2017-18. He has defeated Roman Reigns on various occasions before.

At Crown Jewel, the tables are reversed. Roman Reigns is a heel, while Lesnar is a babyface. Also, Lesnar's advocate, Paul Heyman, is now on Roman's side. This makes things even more interesting.

Here are three ways Roman Reigns can win at Crown Jewel and 2 ways Brock Lesnar can defeat him.


#5. Roman Reigns loses via disqualification at Crown Jewel 2021

The Universal Championship match at Crown Jewel is a normal singles match. This means the competitors will get disqualified for misconduct.

The Usos frequently get involved in Roman Reigns' title defenses. We saw them assault Finn Balor at Extreme Rules 2021. Unlike last time, if they try to attack Reigns' opponent, their cousin will be disqualified from the contest.

Also, if The Head of the Table uses a weapon, like a steel chair, to assault Brock Lesnar, he will immediately get disqualified. However, the title doesn't change hands if the champion loses via disqualification. This will be an advantage for Reigns. The Tribal Chief might get himself disqualified on purpose so that he keeps the title around his waist.

It has been reported that WWE wants to let this rivalry continue after Crown Jewel. This finish will ensure it continues for a few more weeks. We may get at least one more blockbuster match between Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar if the Tribal Chief loses via disqualification.

#4. Roman Reigns loses clean to Brock Lesnar at Crown Jewel 2021

History may repeat itself at Crown Jewel 2021. Brock Lesnar defeated Roman Reigns clean at WrestleMania 34. There's a fair chance of it happening again.

Both stars have faced each other 5+ times in singles and multi-man matches, and Brock Lesnar has stood tall most times. Paul Heyman has been with Brock Lesnar for most of his important matches, but the Beast Incarnate rarely uses the help of Heyman to win his battles.

Thus, we can say that Brock Lesnar can defeat Roman Reigns even if his former advocate is now the special counsel of his opponent. Unlike Roman Reigns, The Beast has always been on his own, and he can win the Universal Championship yet again at Crown Jewel 2021.


#3. Roman Reigns defeats Brock Lesnar at Crown Jewel 2021, thanks to The Usos

It's not uncommon to see Roman Reigns' cousins, The Usos, helping him in his title defenses. We can say that the Tribal Chief is still the champion because of his brothers.

As Brock Lesnar is the strongest obstacle yet, Roman Reigns may need The Usos' help the most. His cousins' aid may lead to him defeating The Beast Incarnate.

Some superkicks and splashes from Jimmy and Jey, and some spears and Superman punches from Roman Reigns, maybe enough to put Lesnar down. If The Bloodline works together and avoids disqualification, Brock Lesnar may end up falling short at Crown Jewel 2021.

#2. Roman Reigns loses the Universal Title to Brock Lesnar, thanks to Paul Heyman

At Crown Jewel, there's a high probability of The Special Counsel turning on his Tribal Chief. Paul Heyman has served Roman Reigns well since 2020. But now that his former client is back, he may finally turn on Roman Reigns.

WWE has been teasing Paul Heyman's double-cross ever since The Beast returned at SummerSlam. On a recent episode of SmackDown, we saw a nice little throwback to when Paul Heyman proudly worked with Brock Lesnar. Crown Jewel might be the perfect time to pull the trigger.

The final moments of the Universal Title match at Crown Jewel could feature Roman Reigns' special counsel hitting him with a cheap shot, allowing Brock Lesnar to execute an F5 for the three-count. This finish will ensure that both competitors look strong, and the rivalry continues for a few more matches.


#1. Roman Reigns defeats Brock Lesnar clean at Crown Jewel 2021

It has happened numerous times before and may happen yet again. The Head of the Table may defeat yet another challenger clean. Roman Reigns was able to defeat a strong challenger like John Cena without any help. Something similar may happen at Crown Jewel 2021.

Brock Lesnar may have defeated him before, but the new Roman Reigns is stronger than ever. Fans expect some drama involving Paul Heyman and The Usos in this battle. However, WWE might shock everyone by letting the Tribal Chief dominantly defeat The Beast.

This will lift the Tribal Chief's legitimacy to the greatest extent, and he will be more than ready for major challenges like The Rock and Goldberg. Roman Reigns' fans will be happy to see him defeat Brock Lesnar without any help.
