The build to this match was abysmal, but it wound up surprising everyone, and not just because of the wild ending.

Look who just shut down all of Tony Khan's critics! More HERE.

The match mostly consisted of Brock Lesnar laying a brutal beating on Roman Reigns. It's where the "Suplex City" meme was born. The cheeky smiles from Roman Reigns to contrast with the beastly look on Lesnar's face added to the atmosphere of the match.

When Brock Lesnar took off his gloves in dramatic fashion, the energy got turned up even further. Despite all the punishment that he took, however, Roman Reigns wouldn't stay down.

Reigns managed to cut Brock Lesnar at the start of the match and busted him wide open as it progressed and he began his comeback. Up to then, everything Roman Reigns did only managed to anger Brock Lesnar, but after slamming the champion's head against the ringpost, the challenger came back. Three Superman Punches and two Spears weren't enough to slay the Beast, however.

Then along came Seth Rollins, to the glee of the crowd. Rollins cashed in his Money in the Bank contract and won, ultimately postponing the conclusion between Lesnar and Reigns by three years. It was certainly a nice way to get started, though.
