Brock has not seemed like a moron in this story. He is playing Paul more so than Paul is playing Brock. A way to go forward may be to have Heyman speaking out against Reigns, so you get that babyface fire goodness, but Brock actually turns down Paul’s offer to be at ringside. This nullifies the risk of being turned on, but also provides an out because Brock is sans a major tool.

The build to WrestleMania can still play off the idea that each side is skeptical of Heyman’s motives.

Heyman gets Brock into the Royal Rumble, Roman puts a hit out on Brock. The Usos start off the Rumble on purpose and Roman makes a statement that they are going to tear through everyone en route to Brock, and they can either work with the Bloodline or against them. You get a couple of heels who do join with The Usos (your Robert Roodes and Happy Corbins). You get a couple of babyfaces who don’t go for it though. They fight valiantly, but all get eliminated (maybe one guy takes out one of the heels). Brock then comes in, shatters everyone. Next couple of guys get obliterated. The big game changer is Bobby Lashley. They stare down, get into a brawl, other guys start to enter. Final few are Brock, Lashley, Owens, Zayn, McIntyre, Edge and maybe Orton or Damian Priest. Brock wins, maybe with Lashley going last, and Brock vs. Roman is confirmed for Mania.

I had this idea that Lashley could enter as WWE Champion ala Brock a few years ago, which can tease the idea of Brock vs. Lashley too. But that doesn’t really matter.
