5 things which worked well for WWE during SummerSlam 2018

#5 The end of Brock's reign

Better late than never

Finally we have a full-time Universal Champion. Brock Lesnar's horrendous 504-day reign as the Universal Champion finally came to end after a loss in the main event of SummerSlam.

After a chase of 4 years and 4 unsuccessful attempts of beating him for the World Title, Roman Reigns at last defeated Lesnar (albeit after some outside interference) in a short match to win his first World Title in over 2 years.

At this moment, it doesn't matter if you hate Reigns or are his biggest follower. You are just happy because Lesnar is no longer the holder of the invisible title of the WWE.

While it would have been a lot better if it was Strowman standing as the Universal Champion at the end of the show, one can certainly agree that fans only wanted Lesnar to lose the title, and it was clearly evident from the reaction the finish received.

Despite it being a lame and boring match, maybe even worse than their WrestleMania encounter which only included a total of 10 offensive moves, the crowd cheered for Reign after his win, something very rare.

It is all but sure he will be booed by the crowd on Raw tonight, but it was very hard to not cheer for him when he pinned Brock in the middle of the ring. With that match, WWE accomplished its dream of making fans cheer for Roman.
