1. Step Ten - Crowning A New Star
WrestleMania is the place where new megastars are born and new eras begin. The 31st edition of the biggest event in the business should be no different.
Lesnar and Reigns will ideally – by the time this match comes – have been built to titan-like status, having swept all before them on the roster with the only man left to conquer being their next opponent. For Brock, his build will have started one-year prior – following his monumental win over The Undertaker and a subsequent unbeaten streak of his own. Reigns has the look, will have developed the personality and be waiting to take his throne if all goes to plan next March.
The match needs to be high impact. It needs to be physical. It needs the two men to stand toe-to-toe, move punch-for-punch and throw everything back twice as hard. Lesnar and Reigns are not going to give us a technical masterclass, so it’s better the match works to each of their strengths.
A story needs to be told, and that story is finding a way for Reigns to slay the Beast. It will take a huge amount of work and massive dedication from creative and the talent involved for this long-term plan to unfold perfectly. It should culminate in one of WrestleMania’s biggest moments and the crowning of a man who can potentially be on top of the game for the next decade.
