A massive beatdown segment took place on WWE Raw which saw Brock Lesnar destroying WWE Universal Champion Seth Rollins. He appeared with a chair in hand to decimate the titleholder when he was already out digesting an End of Days from Baron Corbin. It helped the attacker to pick the bones of the champion who was completely defenseless.

As we have witnessed Brock Lesnar smashed the chair on Seth Rollins for a number of occasions before dropping him with a German Suplex. An F-5 followed thereafter to leave him in a visibly hurt position. Blood was coming out of his back as the beast incarnate was leaving the ring. Doctors and officials ran out to the ring to give medical attention to the champion.
The good thing is that this is not a legit injury and part of a ‘work’ as confirmed by wrestlingINC.com. This is just a storyline progression between Seth Rollins and Brock Lesnar that continued through the attack. WWE released a post-RAW storyline statement on Rollins and noted that the ambulance took him to the medical facility to a nearby hospital for further checking,
“UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS – Universal Champion Seth Rollins was taken to a local medical facility for further evaluation after sustaining apparent injuries at the hands of “Mr. Money in the Bank” Brock Lesnar on Monday Night Raw.
After Rollins absorbed an opportunistic attack by Baron Corbin, The Architect’s challenger at WWE Super ShowDown, Lesnar entered the arena and brutalized The Beastslayer with a low blow, steel chair strikes, German Suplexes, an outside-the-ring F-5 and the Money in the Bank briefcase itself. During the assault, Lesnar claimed he would cash in his contract on Friday at WWE Super ShowDown – not on Raw as promised.”
The good thing is that this incident will not affect the Universal Championship match at Super ShowDown. Seth Rollins will perform against Baron Corbin as per the schedule. The added attraction for the match will be a lurking Brock Lesnar. He has declared on WWE Raw to cash in his Money In the Bank briefcase at Friday’s WWE Super ShowDown in Saudi Arabia.
We should also note that WWE also acknowledged Becky Lynch and Seth Rollins relationship officially on WWE Raw. The women’s champion constantly stood by the side of the stretcher of Rollins and also rode the ambulance that took her to the hospital. Hopefully, someday they’d use them in a storyline, too.
