Describe the Issue

When asking the PayPal REST API to simulate a PAYMENT.SALE.REVERSED event, I get the json below.
The problem is it does not provide any reference to the original transaction id that was reversed.
As a comparison, the PAYMENT.SALE.REFUNDED event has sale_id which corresponds to the original transaction id.
