Roman Reigns, like many fans, thinks Cowboy Brock Lesnar was a positive change for The Beast.
Brock Lesnar and Roman Reigns feuded for an entire year with Lesnar losing to the Tribal Chief at WWE Crown Jewel, WrestleMania 38 and lastly at WWE SummerSlam 2022 in a last man standing match. Roman Reigns went on to outline the importance of the Beast’s new gimmick during their last two matches on The Ringer.
“To me, if he doesn’t level up and showcase the Cowboy Brock character, then don’t nobody give a shit about Brock next to the Tribal Chief. I was able to push my level up, which he knew, OK, ‘this guy’s creating different levels and layers to this, let me step my game up.’ And he did that. That was just a perfect recipe of two performers who want to be the best, and both have pretty legitimate claims to that territory. And when you get two guys who compete, it’s not backstabbing.
We’re looking each other in the eyes and we’re telling each other, ‘I’m better than you and if you don’t show me, then this is the end of the road for you.’ People probably said, ‘Oh God, not Brock-Roman again.’ And then we go out there and deliver a classic. Got better on that last one. And I think that’s the key to the kingdom. How do we continually get better? How do we upgrade? How do we push ourselves to the next level? How do we continue to move these goal posts?”

Brock Lesner’s last appearance came at WWE Crown Jewel 2022 where he picked up a huge win over Bobby Lashley, only to be decimated by The Almighty after the match. Cowboy Brock’ s next appearance is rumored to take place sometime around the Royal Rumble pay-per-view next year.
