Roman Reigns was brutally attacked on WWE Raw for the last couple of weeks by Brock Lesnar.
He was starved to see the champion back on the show after officially becoming the number one contender for the Universal Championship. The comeback happened at the expense of his health.
Due to The Big Dog’s over-reactive actions against the Boss of the WWE, he temporarily got suspended. Despite this, he wanted to enter the show and got handcuffed in the process. The beast incarnate was lurking around and delivered a disturbing assault that landed him in the hospital.
Despite this, Roman Reigns was determined to enter his yard, last week to seek redemption. But, he was not 100 percent fit, and the champion got the better of him. A devastating F5 was delivered on the steel steps that nearly broke him into two halves. It left us curious what his status would be on last night’s edition of WWE Raw.

With only six nights away from the biggest event of the year, the main-eventer did show up on the show. It truly showed up the guts of the Samoan Superstar against the Conqueror who did not bow down to anybody for the past one year.
Before the final segment of WWE Raw, the entire roster was sent to the ram by the general manager of the show to prohibit any physical fights between the two.
After the furious promo delivered by Paul Heyman, Roman Reigns did not hesitate to show up on the ramp, but the other superstars resisted him.
FIVE. SUPERMAN PUNCHES.

Meanwhile, Brock Lesnar brought a chair into the mix and invited his opponent to come down to the ring. The superstars let Reigns go into the ring since they did not want to protect Lesnar, either. A feel-good “Let’s Go Roman” chant filled up the arena.

Lesnar then wanted to ambush Reigns with the steel chair in hand. But, it was backfired with three superman punches. Two more such punches were delivered which floored the champion, finally. Seeing this, Roman Reigns picked up the Universal Championship and went on to pose with it. But, the beast incarnate was up on his feet to deliver a huge F-5 on the Big Dog to keep him down, again.
