Dave Meltzer reports in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter that Rollins was only informed of plans when The Rock segment was going on. He was then taken into a room with Roman Reigns, Brock Lesnar, Paul Heyman and producer Michael Hayes. They worked out the new finish to the main event but otherwise kept the structure of the original match that had been designed for Lesnar and Reigns.
Also Roman Reigns family were pissed he didn't win the title.

rofl @ his family being mad. Vince was probably like, we dont give a shyt you suck :mjlol:

Members of the Anoa'i family were reportedly furious at the finish of the WrestleMania 31 main event on Sunday after finding out that plans had changed and Roman Reigns wasn't becoming WWE World Heavyweight Champion.

Reigns' father, Sika, in particular was so upset that he was apparently "looking to start a war." One WWE source told the following to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter:

"Sika forgot this business is not real life, and was legit pissed at the finish and looking to start a war. A lot of the younger (family members) were rallying around Sika, but the other 45 or 50 of them talked some reason."

Another source who was around the Anoa'i family said they were disappointed and upset, but not out of control.

The family came to see Rikishi get honored at the WWE Hall Of Fame, but apparently was there primarily to see Reigns have his big "WrestleMania moment" and become champion.

I mean it is fukked up. I know shyt changes at any minute, but what really changed in the span of a week? :dahell: They couldn't just let him know beforehand? He's been getting the same reactions for the past month.

"Other 45 or 50 of them" :merchant:

Samoans role deep as fukk :whew:

I saw some interview (or maybe it was the HOF red carpet) where Roman said the whole family took over their hotel and it felt like every time he went to the lobby, he met a new cousin. :sarr:
Vince :ufdup:

So pretty much they waited until the last minute to change there plans to the match. I thought something like this would of been planned out ahead of time. So they got cold feet on roman and said fukk it.

Could be they planned it in advance but to avoid leaks they waited until the last moment.
