Top 15 Brock Lesnar WWE matches

2. John Cena vs. Seth Rollins vs. Brock Lesnar, Royal Rumble 2015

The Royal Rumble Triple Threat was one of Lesnar's most exciting matches.

Triple Threat matches in WWE tend to suffer from a formulaic set up that sees one wrestler at a time incapacitated to facilitate more manageable one on one confrontations in different permutations over the course of the match.

While Brock Lesnar’s WWE Championship defense against John Cena and Seth Rollins at the 2015 Royal Rumble weren’t entirely immune to this dynamic, the match was well executed on the whole and benefited from a lot of fun spots involving all three performers.

The three-man set up served this combination of performers well. Lesnar could play the rampaging monster destroying two mortal men at once. Cena could play his superhero character with feats of strength and a never say die attitude. Perhaps most importantly, Rollins was the pesky, opportunistic heel ready to insert himself to try to steal falls and breakup pin attempts. It was one of the best WWE matches of 2015 and made Lesnar look especially strong on the road to WrestleMania.
