#2 The chaotic ending

What a moment this was.
What a moment this was.

When Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch vs Baron Corbin and Lacey Evans was announced for Extreme Rules, fans groaned. Both feuds had gone on too long and became stale, even when clubbed together. However, it turned out to be a semi-enjoyable main event. There were some interesting spots involving chair duels, double chokeslams and double jumping table breaks. But the most memorable part of this mixed tag team main event came at its climax.

Baron Corbin hit Becky Lynch with the End of Days, sending Seth Rollins into a rage. After going berserk on Corbin with a kendo stick and a steel chair, Rollins hit the Lone Wolf with three Stomps to pick up the victory. Immediately after that, Brock Lesnar came out and cashed in his Money in the Bank briefcase. A minute later, we have a new Universal Champion. Say what you will about Lesnar holding the title again, but the last ten minutes of Extreme Rules were pretty exciting and chaotic. That is exactly how our wrestling should be.
