WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns sends bold warning to Brock Lesnar
There is a lot of muscle going on between WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns, Brock Lesnar and Sami Zayn since the latter won the battle royal to become the no.1 contender for the Universal title.
Last week on Friday Night SmackDown, it was revealed that Lesnar would be making his return. After this, it was seen that WWE official Adam Pearce and Sonya Deville having a conversation over the phone about Lesnar’s return and The Tribal Chief discussing the same with his special counsel Paul Heyman.
Reigns said that if anyone comes between him and his Universal Title, whether it’s Zayn or The Beast, he will smash them together.
“I’m going to smash @SamiZayn, and if @BrockLesnar comes anywhere near me tonight, I’m going to smash @BrockLesnar, too.” #SmackDown @WWERomanReigns @HeymanHustle
Brock Lesnar returns and ruins Sami Zayn’s chances of winning the Universal title
Last week’s Friday Night SmackDown saw Zayn cut a promo in the ring and said that Texas, where the show was happening as his least favorite state. The Beast Incarnate watched the match as Zayn took a dig at him.
Lesnar smashed Zayn with a series of German suplexes and an F5. Lesnar cornered Zayn and walked off to make Reigns hit a spear. The Tribal Chief locked in a guillotine choke to get the quick win.
It was pretty apparent that Zayn will not get a title shot on a major PPV against someone like Reigns. So Lesnar was the only man who could fill this spot of going against The Tribal Chief.
