... that everyone will love Reigns for taking the title from him, right?
They have to know that not liking Brock does not mean that whoever sends him packing is the hero?
... Right?

The second they see Brock in person, the audience will cheer him over Reigns.
Thanos could come down from his massive warship, the Black Order in tow, to pull the Mind Stone out of Seth Rollins' forehead and he'd be cheered over Reigns.

At this point who cares
They need to get this fetish over with or leave it the f*** alone
I’m not watching any Reigns/Lesnar one on one matches since they seem to f*** around with those two all the time

Hating Lesnar to a good amount of fans is like hating a new Drake, Jay or Kanye album. Yeah you hate them but when their album drops everybody listens. Yeah people hate Lesnar and his booking sucks and all but when he's in the ring you actually think "wow, Brock's here, boo the other man" most times. Lesnar sucks but his hold on the fans is insane.
They need to take the belt off of him and get over that large hump though, forreal. I haven't really seen a Lesnar match since he busted Reigns open and even with Roman's SSj2 power-up he still go his ass kicked.

Oh totally.
Every report I read is like “The plan is for Lesnar to become the leader of ISIS and Roman Reigns comes out and drives the Lex Express bus through Lesnar’s heart, ending terrorism, as well as having live sex with Marisa Tomei”.

And then... "The WWE has re-signed Lesnar and Reigns to a 15 year contract."

The storyline itself would work if it wasn't Reigns that WWE are desperate for us to love. If Strowman or Balor or whoever takes the belt off him were presented as the man to take the title off him then it would work but WWE aren't fooling us with the "Brock never turns up so cheer for Roman over him!" Stuff.
Even if Strowman cashes in at Summerslam and wins the title you know the narrative will just be Roman was hard done by. Everything revolves around Roman unfortunately.

If this match does happen (again...), the crowd is going to shit all over it en masse, regardless of who wins.
The only way the crowd will pop is if Braun cashes in, or if someone announces during SummerFest that the match has been cancelled.

You could turn this into a pretty compelling story with the right opponent, but it would have to involve Lesnar dodging the opponent for awhile. He could even cost him some #1 contender matches, etc.

It's a nifty idea in theory but making Brock hated and unpopular is not the same as making Reigns popular. So if this match happens it will just end up having anti heat, kinda like the WM match.

All this does is make me completely indifferent toward the Universal Title. Like it doesn't matter who the heck wins. Braun is cashing in. The is no way on God's green earth he's not winning off his cash in so honestly I don't wanna hear about that thing till Braun has it.

I’m sure that is what they want to believe. They are in for plenty of “you both suck”, “CM Punk” and beachballs if they really do this.

I've always been a huge Brock mark, so when I saw him live at the Royal Rumble I was very happy, but so were lots of other people. The live crowd loves Brock because he is literally a larger than life figure - he dominates any arena he's in because of how he looks. It's why I think Vince likes him as Champion because he gives that feeling to your main event.
I do think the bookers believe Brock to be a huge draw and they exploit that - Reigns I'm sure was planned to go over him to succeed him as that big draw, but now they're aware that isn't going to happen, they aren't sure what to do next.

I don't have a horse in this race.
While Brock doesn't make me like Roman more, Roman also doesn't make me like Brock more.
As they currently are, they can both go screw.

I don't see the point of another Brock vs. Reigns match. Hell Lashley did beat him on PPV. I don't care much for Brock but I would prefer not to see another Brock vs. Reigns match. Twice both sucked and why would I want to see them again for the Fourth time since Brock been back. Honestly it doesn't matter if Brock or Reigns is champion. Raw still going to be a disaster as fans are not going to just love Reigns just because he beat Brock. They will boo him as they have been. HE NOT OVER and never was that over outside of the Shield.

That shitty cage match in Saudi Arabia I think since Mania he's made two appearances on WWE TV. So only one more than he's made for UFC. It's a shambles.

They've been pushing Roman for 3 years with ZERO results, except angst and anger from fans.
They clearly are (stunningly) out of touch with this kind of thing.
So yes. They probably think exactly this.

They don't care about people liking Roman anymore and I don't know why people fall for every report about "they're trying to get him cheered".
One look at WWE TV since Mania has proven thats not really the case.
