After losing his WWE Title to Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 38, Brock Lesnar returned during an episode of SmackDown a few weeks back and attacked the WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns. Now, both Brock Lesnar and Roman Reigns will face each other in a Last Man Standing match at Summer Slam. Now, we got an WWE unique plan for the two men leading up the show.
Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter reported that WWE plans to keep the Brock Lesnar and Roman Reigns apart before their clash at Summer Slam. The two will make frequent appearances in the lead-up to Summer Slam, but never together. Even on the SmackDown go-home edition for Summer Slam, The Tribal Chief Roman Reigns will be absent.
”The interesting main event strategy is that aside from the angle shot when Lesnar returned and laid out Reigns, it has been to keep the two apart. Unless plans change, the two will not be on the same in the entire last month of the build,” claimed Meltzer.
Here is the current schedule plan for Brock Lesnar and Roman Reigns:
”Lesnar is advertised for Smackdown on 7/22 in Boston and 7/29 in Atlanta. Reigns is only advertised this week for the 7/25 Raw show in Madison Square Garden. One would think they would have Reigns in Atlanta for the Smackdown go-home show. Not only is he not advertised but as of a few times ago he was not planned for that show,” stated Meltzer on the Wrestling Observer Newsletter.
