Backstage Speculation on Whether Reigns Will Turn Heel At Mania

According to Dave Meltzer in a recent edition of The latest Wrestling Observer Radio, while it is not expected that Paul Heyman will turn on Brock Lesnar and align with a heel Roman Reigns at WrestleMania, the possibility is still there especially after it was a suggested scenario in the recent Heyman article about him producing and starring in a TV series.
If WWE does go ahead and turn Reigns heel, it would open up a ton of possibilities for storylines as RAW is very heavy on the face side with Seth Rollins, Finn Balor, Braun Strowman and even AJ Styles (if he moves to RAW) but weak on the heel side.
One of the reasons it seems more likely that WWE will stay course and keep Reigns as a face is because there are some suggestions that the company is trying to build him as a beat up “underdog” who will go into the match at a disadvantage yet overcome the odds and win. This would explain why Brock Lesnar has gotten the upper hand over the last two weeks on RAW.
