It’s been nearly three years since Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar played tug-of-war with a WWE title on a go-home show to WrestleMania. Approaching the starting blocks to this year’s ‘Road to WrestleMania’ two of the three men involved in the iconic main event of WrestleMania 31 compete in this Sunday’s Elimination Chamber match.
With the right to face Lesnar hanging in the balance, the paths of Seth Rollins and Reigns may again intersect in the Chamber match. The WWE seems dead set on making Reigns vs. Lesnar part two and The Big Dog is now even fielding questions about the potential rematch from the mainstream media.
Speaking with CBS Sports, Reigns talks about his unfinished business with Lesnar.
“Yeah, we definitely have that. I think what puts validity behind this whole situation is we had a barnburner of a match. It’s one of my favorites that I’ve ever … Well, let me take that back. It’s not my favorite, because it didn’t feel good. But going back and seeing it and the outcome and the story and the reaction and just the rollercoaster ride that the crowd took with us, it was one of my finer days at work. There’s always gonna be that animosity to wanna finish the job. Not only towards Brock but towards Seth for interrupting that. The key is to be able to get to that point and deliver and capitalize. Hopefully I’ll get the shot. We gotta go through the Chamber on Sunday. We gotta make it out of that unscathed and then take a ride to Suplex City. It sounds a lot better than it really feels. Trust me.”
Is there room for Seth Rollins on the WM 34 marquee alongside Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar? If WWE goes in the direction of a WM 31 rematch, can Reigns and Lesnar top the lackluster build to their first match?
