Brock Lesnar To Defend WWE Title On 3/5 At MSG; Lesnar Will Confront Roman Reigns On 2/25 SmackDown

Brock Lesnar is coming to SmackDown on February 25 and he is scheduled to defend his WWE Championship at Madison Square Garden.

Even though Paul Heyman is no longer the advocate for Brock Lesnar, Paul Heyman is still letting Brock Lesnar know where he has to go to defend his gold. Paul Heyman informed Brock Lesnar on the February 21 episode of Monday Night Raw that Brock Lesnar will defend his gold inside Madison Square Garden on Saturday, March 5.

That venue is significant to Paul Heyman and Brock Lesnar for many different reasons. Paul Heyman grew up attending shows at Madison Square Garden and started his journey in pro wrestling by being a photographer ringside at Madison Square Garden. That venue is also significant because Paul Heyman first betrayed Brock Lesnar inside Madison Square Garden at Survivor Series 2002 when Brock Lesnar defended his championship against the Big Show.

That is on March 5. Brock Lesnar plans on seeing Roman Reigns and Paul Heyman a lot sooner than March.

Brock Lesnar then informed his former Advocate that he would be attending SmackDown this coming Friday, February 25 in order to confront Roman Reigns ahead of their title vs. title match at WrestleMania 38.
