Believe it or not, WWE has tried to do this before and failed miserably each time. The first incident came in the months leading up to WrestleMania 31, where Reigns was rumoured to be winning the WWE title from Brock Lesnar in the main event. Sadly it never culminated and WWE was forced to go with plan B and put the title on Rollins instead.

It happened again at WrestleMania 32 when Reigns finally won the WWE title from Triple H in the main event and then lost it a few months later due to a wellness policy violation. The wellness policy violation left Reigns in WWE's bad graces for a month, but his fortune quickly changed when he was booked to face The Undertaker at WrestleMania 33.

It happened a third time at WrestleMania 33, where Roman Reigns beat The Undertaker in Orlando Florida and got one of the biggest heel reactions of all time afterwards. In fact, the heat was so bad that WWE was forced to write him off television for awhile after an encounter with Bruan Strowman.

Keep in mind that John Cena versus The Rock was one of the most anticipated WrestleMania main events of all time, but The WWE Universe even soured on that after they found out it would be happening again the very next year. In the end, The WWE Universe can turn on anything, especially if its done several times in obvious fashion.
