#1 Brock Lesnar Wins the Universal Championship

It is Groundhog Day!

I think we are stuck in an infinite time loop.

Brock Lesnar, the part-timer, is now a three-time WWE Universal Champion. You certainly knew that Brock would be successful after he captured Money in the Bank but it is still surprising to see him show up at a minor pay-per-view. The Philly crowd was shocked to see him despite Paul Heyman’s clear warning. You cannot deny the Money in the Bank cash-in always gets a response.

It is surprising to see Brock Lesnar as Universal Champion again. You think the WWE would learn having a part-time champion is not a good thing for the Raw brand. Sure the ratings haven’t been great under Seth Rollins but you can’t really argue that Brock was helping the ratings as champion either. Here is hoping for some really good twists heading into SummerSlam.
