Reigns still can’t beat Rollins but…
When rumors suggested that Reigns will win the main event against Rollins, one wouldn’t have to scratch their heads. After all, he is almost the new face that runs the place. Rollins came into this match after an injury, with ring rust, the man Reigns never beat and the man who never really lost his title.
It began slow and a little sloppy. Rollins wasn’t as fast a bullet but then action picked and so did business. Rollins delivered a stunning Pedigree ‘outta nowhere’ – a Spear by Reigns that was countered into the Pedigree. Reigns kicked out but then was planted again with a Pedigree. And then it happened. The unthinkable. Rollins pinned Reigns to become a two-time champ but the night wasn’t over.
In a near-perfect storyline moment that will go down as a classic, Rollins got what he doled out last year. Sweet, sweet revenge from Ambrose. The storyline between The Shield whose destinies have always been intertwined gave way for this moment where Ambrose cashed in on the brother who stabbed him in the back two years ago.
And we have a new champion. All three members of The Shield now have claims to the WWE Championship. What a night of retribution!
