Rumor has it that Reigns is to win the Rumble and fight Brock for the title at WM31. However, some have said that some in WWE want the Rock to fight Brock for the title instead. Others say that Rock is slated to have a match with Rusev at WM31.
Instead of doing Reigns vs. Lesnar and Rock vs. Rusev, wouldn't it be far better off to do Reigns vs. Rusev and Brock vs. Rock? That way, you have the marquee matchup that people will pay to see, and Reigns will still get built as a top star if he is the first to hand Rusev a loss. It allows WWE to get a huge buy-rate for WM (instead of Rock vs. Rusev, who wants to see that shit), as well as position Reigns for the future.
ffs it's very unlikely Reigns is facing Lesnar at WrestleMania, that bogus rumor always sounded like bullshit. WWE can do better than like... Like the matches you just mentioned, that sounds pretty good. If The Rock is willing to work WrestleMania.. but Rock vs. Brock shouldn't be for the title though, that match should happen the following year if Brock is still with the company.
I think both feuds would fall flat for Reigns, because seeing two super-booked heels like Brock/Rusev having to job to a Spear isn't going to be pretty.
If WWE is focused on building Reigns as their next SuperCena then beating Brock at Wrestlemania for the WWE title is a much bigger rub than going up against Rusev for the U.S. title.
Like I said, I'm not necessarily saying that Rock wins, I'm just saying I think the matchup would be better due to the fact that Reigns was injured and didn't have a proper buildup.
It would do nothing for anyone. Rusev's buried, Reigns has the useless US title, and a part timer is wrestling another part timer in the main event, making the entire roster look more worthless than it already is.
None of this would happen anyway because The Rock is filming two movies and they don't want him to get injured again.
I don't care who it is, just don't tell us a week before. Don't tell us until Bork is in the ring and the music hits. The pop is the best part of wrestling.
