WATCH: Roman Reigns Annihilated Brock Lesnar in an Insane Championship Match

SummerSlam is coming in a few days with a series of interesting matches for us to watch. WWE has even prepared a new stadium with special effects and other visual wonders to attract viewership. However, nothing is the same without fans. One particular time where being in a packed stadium was worth it would be when Roman Reigns took on Brock Lesnar for the WWE Universal Championship.

SummerSlam 2018 saw some heated encounters, but none as high profile as Roman Reigns vs Brock Lesnar. This rivalry had a three-year-long history and had gotten personal between the Superstars.

Roman Reigns gave it his all in the previous matches but never managed to pull off a victory against Lesnar. He came close at WrestleMania 31 but was interrupted by Seth Rollins who cashed in his Money in the Bank contract and stole away the Championship.

Roman Reigns was about to brawl with Lesnar when a loud roar was heard. It didn’t take time for the crowd to realize that this match was going to be hijacked yet again. Out came Braun Strowman with his Money in the Bank contract!

Roman Reigns tried to finish the match off early

Strowman, however, did not make the match a triple threat. Instead, he sadistically decided to wait till the two Superstars beat the life out of each other, after which he would cash in his briefcase.

Realizing that he would potentially be facing two of the biggest men in WWE, Reigns attempted to finish Brock Lesnar early. As soon as the bell rang, “The Big Dog” delivered a Superman Punch to Lesnar.

He went on two hit two more on “The Beast Incarnate” after which he began the Spears! Roman Reigns hit two devastating Spears on Lesnar and it looked like a repeat of 2016 when Brock faced Goldberg.

Priming himself for the third spear, Reigns hit it, and everyone thought that was over. Unfortunately, Lesnar countered the spear into a Kimura! Reigns realized that the opportunity had passed and tried to break off from the hold.

He did manage to break off it after delivering a Spinebuster to Lesnar. However, he was then met with the cannons of “The Beast Incarnate”.

Lesnar took Reigns to Suplex City and did not let him recover. A winded Reigns struggled to catch his breath. In a moment of pressure, Reigns attempted to spear down Lesnar but Brock moved out of the way.

Brock Lesnar took Braun Strowman out of the equation

Due to this, Reigns flew out of the ring and crashed into a standing Strowman. Seeing the opportunity, Lesnar delivered an F5 to Strowman and tossed away his Money in the Bank briefcase.

After eliminating Strowman from the whole game, Lesnar picked up a chair and started attacking Reigns with it. However, Reigns was waiting and landed a huge Spear on Lesnar, finally pinning him and winning the WWE Universal Championship.

Braun did not interfere again, and Roman Reigns would keep his hard-fought title with him. After years of struggling, Reigns had finally managed to beat Lesnar.

He has decided to stay at home during the pandemic for safety reasons which is why we won’t get to see another huge SummerSlam match from him. Should he choose to come back, WWE will definitely be ready for him.
