Roman Reigns retained the Universal Championship at Crown Jewel through nefarious means, and it's quite evident that his feud with Lesnar is far from over. The issue surrounding Paul Heyman's allegiance is also still up in the air.
According to Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, the program will extend to WrestleMania 38.
''The storyline on where Paul Heyman stands also couldn’t be resolved, as this is likely heading to WrestleMania, since right now there doesn’t appear to be anything on the horizon bigger,'' said Dave Meltzer
Brock Lesnar has been advertised to appear at Royal Rumble. Although we don't know the extent of his participation, Lesnar could always win the Royal Rumble and challenge Reigns for the Universal Championship at WrestleMania.
