Brock Lesnar Announces On WWE Smackdown That He’s a Free Agent, Angering Roman Reigns (Clips)

Brock Lesnar went undrafted in the first round of the WWE Draft on Smackdown, and declared himself a free agent. Tonight’s show saw the first night conclude without Lesnar being drafted.

Lesnar appeared immediately after the final picks, interrupting an interview with Jeff Hardy to announce that he was not a free agent thanks to his “good friend Paul Heyman” and can do whatever he wants.

That was followed by a segment back in the Bloodline’s locker room, where Roman Reigns threatened Paul Heyman and made note of how The Usos had not been drafted tonight. Heyman assured him that there was a plan and that the Usos would be drafted on Raw. Reigns told Heyman to be at Raw to make sure the Usos got drafted to the Blue Brand and, after Heyman left, Reigns told the Usos to follow Heyman to Raw. He told them that if they did not end up on Smackdown, to leave Heyman for dead on the Red Brand.
