Possible *SPOILER* For WrestleMania Main Event & WWE Creative Plans For The U.S. & Intercontinental Titles

wwe rawReddit user MetsFan4Ever, who has become a fairly reliable source for backstage WWE news, is reporting some potentially major information about next weekend’s WrestleMania pay-per-view, and the future of three of the company’s championships. 

This report contains possible SPOILERS and has not been verified – continue reading at your own risk. 

r/SquaredCircle: After talking to a few people today at the SmackDown tapings word going around is that Brock Lesnar is very close to agreeing on a new contract with the WWE. With the lack of popularity that Roman Reigns has received as of late, Triple H is pushing Vince on the idea of keeping the WWE Championship on Brock.

This would also have huge ramifications with two of the under card matches on the show.

If Brock retains the title it would in all likelihood mean a continued “special attraction schedule” for him. Triple H as of late has been big on the idea that the I.C. Title and the U.S. Title should mean something again. The plan, if Brock retains is to put the U.S. Title on John Cena and the I.C. Title on Daniel Bryan. The theory would be that two legit Superstars would bring legitimacy to both titles. Also, while Brock is gone both men can main event Raw, Smackdown, PPVs and house shows with those titles on top of the card. Which again, would bring back the legitimacy of both belts.

A lot can change between now and WrestleMania. But this is just one of the many ideas that are being discussed. I have not been told of any other ideas, but if I hear more, I will be sure to pass the information along to this great community.

No idea how accurate this information is, but MetsFan has been more right than wrong in the past, so take his report with a grain of salt as nothing more than what he said it was – one of the many ideas being discussed. It’s certainly a stretch to assume WWE would break from the plan this late into the game, given that the WrestleMania card is almost exactly what guys like Meltzer reported it would be 6+ months ago. Never say never. If Brock re-signs, is it the right decision to bail on Reigns? Could he possibly recover from the loss? Would Vince ever take that much egg on his face, basically admitting he was wrong and the fans were right? I doubt it. I DO like the idea of Bryan carrying the show with the I.C. title in the interim, but I believe taking the title off Rusev for Cena is absolutely 100% the wrong move.
