10 Surprising moments from Extreme Rules 2018

#6 Roman losses clean

A great match that was capped off with a vicious spear.

'Many like to hate Roman Reigns because its cool to hate Roman Reigns,' how many times have you heard a WWE employee echoed those words? So for a long time, that statement riled up the fans even more, but after witnessing the man giving everything he's got to put on entertaining matches, improve on the mic and even embrace the hate, the Roman Reigns hate train is slowly losing steam in the opinion of many.

But at Extreme Rules, Reigns once again was booed like crazy, and Bobby Lashley became a valiant hero for one night only via default. And WWE made the right decision by capitalizing on that heat to make Lashley a star once again, as many are backing Lashley to put Brock Lesnar down finally, and WWE made that statement true by giving Lashley a clean victory over an overconfident Roman Reigns.

Reigns was in control of the entire match and obliterated Lashley on many occasions, but one unsuspecting spear out of nowhere from Lashley gave him bragging rights and left Reigns frustrated. This was the right call by WWE as they try and build up their main stars on Raw.
