As seen on last night’s episode of WWE Monday Night RAW, Roman Reigns came out to the ring and cut a very serious “shoot” style promo regarding not knowing what was going to happen during his Main Event Match at WrestleMania, even after speaking to Vince and having him look him in the eyes. Roman added that he also didn’t know about his Steel Cage Match for the Universal Championship at The Greatest Royal Rumble event in Saudi Arabia later this month, until he heard about it on the internet.
In a report that came out earlier today from Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer, it appears as though not many people at all actually knew what was going to happen in the Main Event at Wrestlemania, therefore indicating that there could have been some truth to Roman Reigns promo last night on RAW.
“I mean literally, nobody backstage knew that he was going to win. The referee was told during the match to count to three, so he knew Lesnar was winning, but not until he was actually in the ring and the match was going on. So that tells you how far they went with this one. But here everyone else thought Roman Reigns was going to win.
Roman Reigns did a promo on RAW, and I don’t know exactly how much of that was a shoot, that was when he was when he was talking about not knowing and Vince McMahon looking him in the eye and all that. But it’s obviously a promo because they want you to know. It was a promo to make you read between the lines.”
