Roman Reigns makes major confession about planning to steal from Brock Lesnar for 5 years before The Bloodline formed

Roman Reigns has confessed to “snatching” what made Brock Lesnar powerful from him. He has spoken about it recently.

Brock Lesnar has been gone from action for a long time, but even when he was here the last time, the star did not have an important element to him – Paul Heyman. Heyman has been inexorably linked with Lesnar over his entire career, and it’s only been since he started working with Roman Reigns that Lesnar had to try to do things on his own. This is the first such time since back in the day when he betrayed Lesnar for The Big Show.

Speaking on the A&E WWE Legends Biography of Paul Heyman, Roman Reigns spoke about watching Brock Lesnar and Heyman work together for years from the time that he was feuding with him.

He said that watching them maneuver and be the powerful duo that they were, he knew he had to steal it. The two had their first match at WrestleMania 31, but it would be 5 years before the two teamed up together as the Bloodline. It was a plan for Reigns that came together after a long time.

“Watching how Paul and Brock were maneuvering at the time, it was a powerful duo, it really was. So much so, I had to snatch it.”

Reigns went on to praise Heyman and the contribution he had made to his career.

Roman Reigns also said that working with Heyman made things much easier for him so that he could just focus on wrestling and leaving the rest to him.

“I can lock in and focus on just what I need to focus on. He just makes it easier.”

As the Wise Man, Heyman would arrange things for Reigns on-screen, but the same appears to be the case when it came to dealing with what was happening backstage as well.
