After the heavenly strains of Bobby Roode’s theme song cut off Elias’ traditional pre-match performance, Elias notched an impressive in-ring victory at the expense of The Glorious One. Getting upstaged by Bobby Lashley led Elias to declare himself a healthy scratch for last week’s Raw, but Team Red’s resident wanderer was certainly not about to let his spotlight be stolen twice. The Glorious One battles Raw's sinister songsmith in his first singles match as a Team Red Superstar.

That may not be enough to convince the crowing Heyman that a Lesnar victory is anything but a foregone conclusion, but if there’s one thing this series has taught us, it’s that nobody knows what’s going to happen, and it may well be Reigns who leaves Saudi Arabia as the spoiler. Despite his loss at WrestleMania (to say nothing of the looming threat of Samoa Joe at WWE Backlash), Reigns confronted The Conqueror with a simple promise to his longtime enemy - that no matter how he returned from Saudi Arabia, he would have the title with him - and made his exit in confident fashion. Now, with the ink dry on his contract and a home-field advantage of sorts, The Beast had one more objective in mind: To “shred Roman Reigns to pieces” and send him back to the States in “multiple boxes.”Īlso unsurprisingly, Reigns was equally unworried.

And during his contract negotiations, he used his biggest bargaining chip - the Universal Title - to force the Cage Match stipulation specifically because it was the closest thing to a UFC fight that the former cage-fighter could select. As Paul Heyman explained, it’s his job to gloat. Now, five days before the showdown in Saudi Arabia, we found out how both Superstars feel about it.īrock, unsurprisingly, remains unworried.

One day later, he signed a new contract with a surprising proviso: That The Beast would defend his title against Reigns once again in a Steel Cage at the Greatest Royal Rumble event.

LOUIS - The last time the WWE Universe saw Brock Lesnar, he elbowed Roman Reigns into a gory defeat at WrestleMania to retain the Universal Championship.
