2. Strong Segment Helps Build Hype For Brock Lesnar vs. Seth Rollins At WrestleMania 35

Seth Rollins seemed destined for a huge 2019 after arguably his best year to date in 2018.  And when The Architect won the men’s Royal Rumble match a few weeks ago, that notion became set in stone with Rollins outlasting 29 other superstars to earn a guaranteed championship match at WrestleMania 35.

It didn’t take long to find out who Rollins would be challenging at WrestleMania 35, and it was none other than the Universal Champion, Brock Lesnar.  The Architect had to find out the hard way, however, by taking six F5’s a couple weeks ago on WWE Raw.  Last night saw Rollins address his upcoming match with Lesnar and what it means in the grand scheme of things.

Rollins said he took six F5’s, but he’s still standing and is ready to beat Lesnar at WrestleMania.  He was then interrupted by Lesnar’s advocate, Paul Heyman.  As usual, Heyman was masterful on the mic and said no matter how great Rollins is, Lesnar is a beast and Rollins going into this match is a suicide mission.  Rollins agreed, but had much more to say to Heyman and Lesnar.

He said he is willing to do whatever it takes to beat Lesnar, who he said has been holding this business hostage for two years.  Rollins said he will sacrifice everything he has to take the Universal Championship from Lesnar and that it wasn’t a prediction, it was a spoiler.  This was a tremendous segment from both men and it really helped add anticipation to this Universal Championship match.

The Architect wants to burn down the title reign of The Beast Incarnate at WrestleMania 35, and he is set to accomplish that at all costs.
