5 reasons why Brock Lesnar vs Roman Reigns is the ideal main event for WrestleMania 31

The Brock Lesnar – Roman Reigns match is all set to headline WrestleMania 31 after the Samoan Superman managed to win the Royal Rumble in front of a hostile Philadelphia crowd. Reigns winning the rumble was met with a chorus of jeers by the WWE Universe but that is not going to stop his journey to Mania.One of the main reasons for the fans turning on Reigns is Daniel Bryan. Everyone wanted to see Bryan vs. Lesnar for the championship at WrestleMania but in reality, the Reigns vs. Lesnar match was always the better option.There are certain reasons why WWE’s decision to book Reigns as the winner or rumble was the right one and here is a look at those reasons. 

#5 The mainstream appeal

Pure wrestling fans will argue that Daniel Bryan is a good choice to headline WrestleMania but from another perspective, Bryan might not sell tickets. The mainstream fans that are known to tune into only WrestleMania will look into the poster and they will not be impressed with a bearded short guy on it.

Reigns on the other hand has the looks to produce an impression on someone who does not watch wrestling on a regular basis. He has the size to stand toe to toe with Lesnar as well as make things more interesting.

Of course, Bryan is a respected name all across the wrestling community but when was the last time you saw a short shabby guy become the face of WWE?
