5 WrestleMania 34 opponents for Roman Reigns instead of Brock Lesnar

#2 Randy Orton

Reigns Empire vs Viperville?

When Raw and SmackDown Live first re-entered the brand split, my mind went straight to the matches between the Superstars of both brands at WrestleMania that used to happen in the previous brand split. I'm talking about matches like Kurt Angle vs Shawn Michaels that would have never happened because Michaels was a Raw superstar and Angle was a SmackDown superstar.

Fast forward to 2018, where we could have Kurt Angle and Daniel Bryan naming their best superstars to face off in order to see who has the more superior brand. Kurt Angle could name Roman Reigns, allowing Daniel Bryan to name Randy Orton, which would lead to an epic one-on-one showdown at WrestleMania. There is a backstory here as well because "The Viper" was also Reigns’ first big singles victory after the Shield broke up.

That match happened at SummerSlam 2014. Two years ago, Orton eliminated Reigns in the Royal Rumble while this year it was Reigns who eliminated Orton. This match would probably see Reigns going over (like any other match Reigns would have at WrestleMania) but you never know...
