5 Surprising Moments From WWE Crown Jewel

The combined ages are 206 years...wow. I can't believe this is the actual main event in 2018.

#2 Brock Lesnar Wins The Universal Championship

Brock sure loves to do this move.

Why?

Brock Lesnar held the Universal Championship for 504 days and proceeded to defend the title only ten times in one and a half years. It was frustrating to see the Raw Brand without a champion for that entire time.

Charlotte Flair to return and wrestle a CURRENT CHAMPION?

With Roman’s shocking illness causing him to drop the title, I figured the WWE would want another full-time wrestler to carry the brand into 2019. But I am not an insane person like clearly the entire WWE writing team.

Sure, Strowman survived a lot of F-5s but ultimately he was wiped out by Brock Lesnar in about three minutes. So the very popular Braun was destroyed by a wrestler who has only appeared a few times a year.

I guess Vince McMahon really wants Lesnar to have that Universal Title at UFC 230. Seems surprising to throw your full-time roster under the bus to do so.
