At WrestleMania, Roman Reigns will try to be come the 1 behind the 1 in 21-1, when he takes on Brock Lesnar for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. With a couple weeks left, Reigns spoke with Digital Spy about various topics related to his wrestling career, but primarily, what “Mr. Money in the Bank” Seth Rollins may try to do to ruin his night.
Reigns says in the interview Rollins will be ready to strike once he wins the world title:
“That’s what the gameplan is – not only to win it, but walk out that night with the WWE Championship, because you hit it right on the head. Seth is a little snake, man – no pun intended. He’s smart, he’s The Architect, he’s a schemer, he’s always gonna wait till the time is right.”
He then notes he feels Rollins’ entrance theme may hit once the match is over:
“My job is to hopefully have a little bit of energy, just something enough to muster out a fight if he comes out there with that stupid music of his, that stupid haircut and that stupid smile with that dumb briefcase, he’s going to try and ruin my whole night.”
As former brethren in The Shield, Reigns believes Rollins will have stooped to a new level of low if he cashes in:
“That hurts me. For someone who was my brother, someone I was so tight with to try and take that moment from me – he better hope I don’t get too pissed out there.”

Editor’s Note
A cash-in would really, really make things intriguing. And it’s more than on the table, especially if Lesnar is on his way out.
