Sunday’s SummerSlam is all set to cast a swashbuckling main event that would feature Brock Lesnar and Roman Reigns locking horns with each other for a final chapter in their long-standing rivalry and the last man standing would be handed over the WWE Undisputed Universal Championship. All fans are busy making their WWE SummerSlam 2022 predictions.
According to Dave Meltzer, Roman Reigns was supposed to be the one walking away with the title again but a new speculation has just grabbed the limelight with the Mouth of the South spilling a handful of beans ahead of WWE’s prized PLE.

Could this be a hint that maybe Paul Heyman betrays Roman tomorrow at #SummerSlam and he helps Theory cash in and become the new Undisputed champion and become his manager? https://t.co/mR9IUZb0Dr

Speaking to Sportskeeda Wrestling, Jimmy Hart dropped a couple of bombs about the predicted course of WWE following the sternum-churning stramash between Lesnar and Reigns. He would quote:
“I think the key to that match is going to lie with Paul Heyman. Is Paul Heyman going to be true to Roman Reigns, or is he going to do the flippy and join back with his old guy Brock Lesnar? So that’s who I’m going to be watching.”

It has been years since the Tribal Chief and the Beast Incarnate has been going at each other and this iconic rivalry has featured countless twists and turns. Needless to say, with Paul Heyman in the mix, a match is never done unless that final bell is rung.
Paul Heyman has been with Roman since his heel turn in 2020 and has continued with Bloodline with a minor defection to team Lesnar at the end of 2021. However, the Royal Rumble witnessed Heyman getting back to Roman’s camp comfortably after the Beast Incarnate was betrayed.
Add to this the menacing controversial duo of Drew McIntyre and Theory. The two have been going on at each other in the craziest ways possible and would probably play a significant role in shaping up the contest. Just ahead of the Summerslam, McIntyre made a rollicking statement by attacking Theory from the back while the latter was on a retreat from an enraged Brock.
