As seen during this week’s episode of WWE SmackDown, Paul Heyman found himself in the middle of the ongoing feud between Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar.
During the opening segment of the show, Roman Reigns came out with The Bloodline and Reigns demanded that the fans in Madison Square Garden acknowledge him. Eventually, Brock Lesnar came out and the two men came face-to-face.
Heyman proceeded to try and calm things down and asked Lesnar why he was going after Reigns’ Universal Championship. Lesnar countered by asking Heyman why he didn’t tell Reigns he was going to be appearing at WWE SummerSlam. Reigns then became suspicious and took off with The Usos. With just Lesnar and Heyman left in the ring, Brock went to F5 him and that brought Reigns back into the ring, as he hit a Superman punch on Brock.
Later in the show, Reigns revealed that he’ll be coming for Lesnar when he’s done with Finn Balor.
