5 best main events from the Extreme Rules pay-per-view

#4 Samoa Joe vs Bray Wyatt vs Roman Reigns vs Seth Rollins vs Finn Balor

A fatal-five-way match between five of WWE's absolute best sounds like the most exciting thing ever and this five-way Universal Championship #1 Contenders Match between Joe, Reigns, Rollins, Balor, and Wyatt had all the exciting elements in it.

This five-way match had all the good and bad elements in it and the best part about this contest was definitely the last 10 minutes of the match with some crazy action closing out the contest. Reigns hitting a double spear on Balor and Joe, Rollins hitting a frog splash on Wyatt from the top rope to the floor through an announcer’s table was another spectacular spot as well.

Honestly, it was yet another solid Extreme Rules main event and Samoa Joe eventually winning by choking out Finn Balor was the right call, as it led to a clash of the titans between Joe and Universal Champion Brock Lesnar.
