At WrestleMania 34 in 2018, Roman Reigns met Brock Lesnar for the Universal title in the show's main event. It took Lesnar six F-5's but he finally managed to defeat Reigns to retain the belt. The duo faced off again in Saudi Arabia, this time inside a steel cage, with Lesnar coming out victorious this time around as well.
At SummerSlam 2018, Reigns finally beat Brock Lesnar to win the Universal title. The reign would be short-lived though, as The Tribal Chief went on to relinquish his belt and take time off to battle leukemia.
Seth Rollins won the 2019 Royal Rumble match and challenged Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 35. A low blow and three Curb Stomps did the trick for Rollins as he defeated Lesnar to win the Universal title at WrestleMania.
The Beast Incarnate would later cash in his Money In The Bank briefcase on Rollins to win back the belt. The two arch-rivals met again at SummerSlam 2019, where The Architect scored a clean pin over Lesnar to finish off the rivalry.

Abhilash Mendhe is a pro wrestling journalist at Sportskeeda with nearly five years of experience. He completed his MBA from the Symbiosis Institute of Telecom Management in 2016 and worked with multiple banking institutions, including Tech Mahindra. While he started writing WWE articles for Sportskeeda in 2019 as a hobby, it eventually became a significant part of his professional journey.
Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.
He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
