When the news broke out that there will be a Fatal Four Way Match for the Universal Title that will take place at SummerSlam, there have been several reports indicating that Lesnar will lose his title to Reigns. After Heyman announced in Raw several weeks ago that Lesnar and he will leave WWE is Lesnar loses, the odds have changed and it was reported that Lesnar will still be the Universal Champion after SummerSlam.
Every week on Raw, Heyman continues to say that Lesnar and he will leave WWE is Lesnar loses at SummerSlam. Even though Paul Heyman continues to tease that Brock Lesnar will leave WWE for UFC if he gets screwed out of the title at SummerSlam, the two are fully expected to remain with WWE at least until next April which is when Lesnar’s contract expires.
The plan for the main event of SummerSlam still appears to be for Lesnar to retain his championship and then go on to face Braun Strowman for the September PPV.
On a recent edition of Wrestling Observer Radio, Bryan Alvarez and Dave Meltzer discussed Paul Heyman’s promo and his reference to the UFC when on Raw Heyman said that if Lesnar loses, he would have to be locked up in a “cage”, alluding to the UFC octagon.
According to Meltzer, Heyman’s promo was very likely not scripted by any writers and was all by his own doing. However, there’s a bit of a tricky aspect to it as Heyman would want to deliver all his lines but at the same time, he can’t flat out reference UFC and piss Vince McMahon off.
