Royal Rumble winner and WWE Champion Brock Lesnar has chosen to battle Roman Reigns in The Biggest WrestleMania Match of All-Time.

It is a WINNER TAKE ALL in a highly anticipated Championship Unification Match on WrestleMania Sunday.

Brock Lesnar vs Roman Reigns set for WrestleMania

Lesnar was originally scheduled to challenge The Head of the Table at WWE Day 1, however, Reigns tested positive for COVID-19.

The Tribal Chief was unable to defend the Universal Title at the first Premier Live Event of the year but wasn’t done with Lesnar.

After being fired by Reigns days earlier, however, Paul Heyman once again took on the role of Advocate for Lesnar and negotiated for his client to be added to the Day 1 WWE Title Fatal 4-Way Match instead. Thanks to Heyman’s manoeuvring, The Beast was free to conquer the field and claim the WWE Championship.

During Lesnar’s WWE Title defence against Bobby Lashley at Royal Rumble, Reigns suddenly emerged when the referee was down and used some surprise help from the treacherous Heyman to strike Brock with the title and allow Lashley to reclaim his WWE Championship.

The WWE Universe would not have to wait to see how Lesnar would react. On the same night, the furious Beast stormed his way to the ring as a surprise entrant in the Royal Rumble Match and claimed victory in dominant fashion.

With the right to challenge the World Champion of his choosing, Lesnar emerged the following night on Raw and immediately chose to go to war with the Universal Champion at WrestleMania 38. As a result, Reigns will finally have his showdown against The Conqueror on The Grandest Stage of Them All!

Then at WWE Elimination Chamber, titleholder Bobby Lashley was removed from the competition due to concussion protocol. This paved the way for The Beast to triumph in the Elimination Chamber Match and reclaim the WWE Championship.

As a result, the WrestleMania main event will now be a Championship Unification Match!

Don’t miss a spectacular moment of action when WINNER TAKES ALL Match on the second night of WrestleMania, broadcast LIVE on Supersport Channel 128 and streaming LIVE on WWE Network.

WWE are yet to reveal the running order for WrestleMania 38 which will once again straddle two nights on 2 and 3 April. The morning of 3 and 4 April for SA viewers looking to catch the show live.
