After shocking the wrestling world at WrestleMania 30 by breaking The Undertaker's legendary streak, Brock Lesnar set his sights on the WWE World title. The original plans called for Lesnar to squash Daniel Bryan at The Biggest Party of the Summer, but Bryan's injury saved him from a ruthless beating at the hands of Lesnar.
Lesnar faced Cena at the PPV for the gold, and the match was far from what the fans had been expecting coming in. The two Superstars had fought before, with Cena actually beating Lesnar upon his in-ring return at Extreme Rules 2012.
This time though, Lesnar had other plans in mind. He delivered a total of 16 suplexes to Cena, completely squashing him to win the match and the title. The destruction cemented Lesnar as the most dangerous entity in all of WWE at the time, and he never looked back.

Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.
He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
