5 Reasons why Seth Rollins chose Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 35
Seth Rollins won the 2019 men's WWE Royal Rumble match, earning himself a world title shot at WrestleMania 35.
Rollins came out on RAW and revealed that his childhood dream had been to win the Royal Rumble and then main event WrestleMania. Triple H came out and congratulated him before letting him know that he had till the end of the night to make his decision.
Rollins was supposed to reveal who he wanted to face - Daniel Bryan or Brock Lesnar - at the end of WWE RAW, but that didn't really go as planned. After Paul Heyman suggested that Rollins choose Daniel Bryan instead of 'The Beast', Rollins came out and attacked Brock Lesnar before getting destroyed.
Even though Rollins never got to make his decision, here why we think he chose Lesnar.
#5 Redemption for his brother
Brock Lesnar and Roman Reigns' feud over the WWE Universal Championship seemed never-ending at one point. Every time that we thought it was over and Reigns would finally win the Universal Championship, Lesnar retained.
Reigns finally won the title at SummerSlam but had to relinquish it shortly after on one of the most emotional episodes of RAW - announcing that he was leaving the WWE to battle leukaemia again.
Brock Lesnar later won back the vacant Universal Championship, taking it back to being an absentee title, something that Reigns had railed against.
After winning the WWE Royal Rumble, Rollins now has a chance to change this, not only for himself but also for Roman Reigns. This is a chance Rollins won't miss.
#4 They have a history
Seth Rollins and Brock Lesnar have a long history.
Rollins cashed-in his Money In The Bank at WrestleMania 31 during the main-event to win the WWE Championship.
He feuded with Lesnar over the next few months but as a cowardly heel, he never really got to show what he could do against Brock and the feud only ended after The Undertaker and Lesnar started feuding.
