On April 3, 2022, Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar will play the final chapter of their rivalry in the biggest event of the year. The 38th edition of WrestleMania will take place over two evenings at Arlington's AT&T Stadium, a beautiful setting for a show that promises to be memorable. The Beast and the Tribal Chief had already clashed last year in Crown Jewel, Saudi Arabia, with Roman coming out victorious thanks also to the fundamental help of Jey and Jimmy Uso. The two should have met again on Day 1, the first pay-per-view of 2022, but the Coronavirus positivity of the Universal champion has upset the cards on the table.
With just over a week to go until 'Showcase of the Immortals', WWE legend The Great Khali has predicted the winner of the big match between Lesnar and Reigns.
The Great Khali on Roman Reigns
“I don't think anyone will stop Roman Reigns' streak. From my point of view, the Tribal Chief will defeat Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 38” - said The Great Khali. During a long interview with Sportskeeda, former WWE manager Dutch Mantell praised Reigns' work over the years: “Roman is an exceptional performer, one of the best of his generation, but I don't think he'll ever get to the same level of Hulk Hogan. Hogan's status is something he can hardly describe in words, he has transcended wrestling and is known in every corner of the world. Even though he didn't fight that frequently, his every appearance in the ring was a special event. People used to sell his soul just to go and see him." Two-time Hall of Famer Booker T also spoke of Roman Reigns: “If I was offered the chance to fight again, I would only accept if the opponent was Reigns. I respect him very much, as I have said several times in the past. I'd like to see if there is still some petrol in my tank. I would try to present myself in the best possible form." We'll have all the answers in a week. Following the match, the Tribal Chief came out and viciously attacked Lesnar to the point where the Beast Incarnate bled profusely. Reigns then went on to hold both the WWE and Universal titles, asking Lesnar to acknowledge him.
Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar have previously faced each other twice in the main event of WrestleMania, first in 2015 and then in 2018. However, the stakes are much higher this time around.
