Paul Heyman and Roman Reigns promo
Heyman came out to hype up Lesnar and his legitimacy.
Heyman said that the “rules” must have been written by a pacifist, which Lesnar is not. He said that Lesnar is coming to make war on Roman Reigns.
Heyman wondered what will happen when Lesnar goes beyond the boundaries. He talked about all the things WWE could do to counteract it, but Heyman’s mic cut out.
Heyman said that doing that to him is one thing, but nothing will stop Lesnar once he gets going.
Heyman said that Reigns could’ve possibly been the guy, but reality is going to slap him in the face at WrestleMania, and Lesnar is going to smack him down.
Heyman said that Reigns can’t beat Lesnar at WrestleMania, and his father should’ve told him that.
Reigns said that Heyman is one of the best talkers in the history of the business. Reigns said he has no issue with Heyman, then turned towards the hard camera and addressed Lesnar.
Reigns said that he’d be willing to say this to Lesnar’s face, but he’s not here.
Reigns said that he’s ready for a fight against Lesnar, and he’s hoping for a war.
Reigns said that he expects to take a beating, and he might even be carried out, but he will be carried out as WWE World Heavyweight Champion.
Heyman was very good here. Duh. Reigns started out so strong, then he had his customary, back-to-back flubs, tripping over his words, and just like that he regressed back to where he started.
Paul Heyman w/ Renee Young
Heyman said that Reigns is acting like he’s cool, calm and collected, but he’s just bottling up his frustration.
Heyman said that Reigns will have the opportunity to meet Brock Lesnar face-to-face next week on Raw.
