5 Things you missed at WWE SummerSlam 2019: 2 top stars miss PPV, Wyatt uses new finishing move

#1 Seth Rollins accomplishes what Roman Reigns couldn't

Seth Rollins with a well-earned title win

Seth Rollins looked like an absolute star in the main event of WWE SummerSlam 2019. They always say that Brock Lesnar can have a good match when he wants to and it was further proven at the biggest party of the summer when he had a classic with Seth Rollins.

The Beastslayer lived up to the moniker when he defeated Brock Lesnar clean in the main event. By doing so, he became the first person to pin Lesnar clean since Goldberg at Survivor Series 2016.

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

Beating him clean is something that even Roman Reigns couldn't do despite having multiple attempts against The Beast Incarnate. Credit must be given to the three-time Universal Champion who really made Rollins look good in his victory. The last few great matches that Lesnar has had - he ended up winning himself.

But to put Rollins over clean is an absolute statement. It's a statement that we're truly in the Heyman Era and Tom Colohue of Sportskeeda was right in saying that Heyman doesn't want Lesnar as the Universal Champion.

It's also a statement that he is serious about working with full-timers and this is how WWE has needed to book babyfaces and current Superstars.
