I wonder if his appearances will go up on this new deal. I mean I doubt he fights on Raw every week but maybe he shows up a bunch more for promos and stuff.

He was in a great negotiating position. It would have been real difficult to put the belt on Reigns this Sunday. WM crowd would have booed him out of the stadium and the post-Mania Raw crowd would have eviscerated him. Plus their next major PPV is in Chicago which is a smark crowd. Would have been a terrible start to his title run.

This allows them to keep the belt on Lesnar and make the crowds happy. Cena and Bryan can win the midcard titles and maybe give them some prestige to fill the gap of having the champ on a part-time schedule.
