WWE already started building towards Roman Reigns vs. Brock Lesnar as we see that The Usos joking around Paul Heyman about Brock Lesnar and locking him out of Roman Reigns locker room. Paul Heyman also scared to face Roman Reigns but surprisingly Reigns looks clam about Brock Lesnar's return. Obviously, we see some tensions between The Bloodline and Paul Heyman and it's interesting to see what will happen on coming days.
