5 People who will be negatively affected by Brock Lesnar retaining the Universal Title at GRR

Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar faced off for The Universal Title title in a Cage match at The Greatest Royal Rumble and while Reigns looked poised to finally unseat Lesnar as champion, he came up short after a vicious spear propelled him and Lesnar through the cage wall and onto the arena floor.

Lesnar ended up winning the match after WWE officials determined that Lesnar's body hit the floor first, making this the second time in a month that Reigns has come up short in a match to Lesnar for the title. Another important aspect of all this was that several outlets were reporting that this would be the night Reigns would finally taste title gold, but it didn't happen.

With that being said and this strange title picture continuing to unfold before The WWE Universe's eyes, here are five people that were negatively affected by Lesnar retaining The Universal Title at Greatest Royal Rumble and what the win means for the future of the entire WWE landscape!


#5 Samoa Joe

Samoa Joe lost out on his title shot after Roman Reigns failed to win The Universal Title.

Roman Reigns is set to do battle with Samoa Joe at Backlash, but The Universal title will now not be on the line after Reigns lost his rematch against Brock Lesnar at Greatest Royal Rumble. Not only is this a big blow to Reigns, who continues to unsuccessfully chase the big red belt, its also bad news for Samoa Joe, who was hoping for a shot at the title.

With that being said, it's not known what WWE is going to do with either superstar moving forward, but it seems pretty obvious that they are hesitant to take the title off of Lesnar right now. Unfortunately for Samoa Joe, that means he has lost out on his final chance at The Universal Title on Raw and will now have to focus on The WWE title on Smackdown Live.
