The upcoming bout between Lesnar and Reigns is now being considered a winner-take-all title unification match.

Lesnar was supposedly not scheduled to feature in Friday's edition of SmackDown, following his beatdown by Reigns at the Madison Square Garden event earlier this month. But, Lesnar anyway showed up on SmackDown, destroying The Bloodline's car with a forklift and tearing the door off another. The WWE Champion then claimed he was coming for blood at WrestleMania.

The WWE Company WWE has confirmed that Lesnar and Reigns would face off on the next episode of the red brand.

With the "Show of Shows" just two weeks away, Lesnar and Reigns' confrontation on RAW is expected to be an explosive one, as a lead-up for the mega event.

Reigns and Lesnar have dominated two editions of WrestleMania in the past. The first instance was at WrestleMania 31, with the WWE Championship on the line. However, Seth Rollins stole the show with his Money in the Bank cash-in and clinched the title.

Lesnar and Reigns' second main event match was at WrestleMania 34, with the former winning the Universal Championship.
