When the Shield broke up, Roman Reigns set his sites on the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. At both Money in the Bank 2014 and Battleground 2014, Roman found himself in muti-man matches where the title was on the line. His momentum was temporarily derailed when he had an emergency surgery for a hernia. However, he returned better than ever a few months ago and won The Royal Rumble shortly after he returned. As a result of that victory, Roman Reings earned a man event title shot against WWE World Heavyweight Champion Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 31.
