The three men had overcome past emotional battles to fight their way into the main event of the Showcase of Immortals. As most WWE fans had expected, Reigns, Edge, and Bryan stole the show to produce one of the greatest headliners in recent memory.

Early on, the Rated-R Superstar neutralized Jey Uso by laying him out with the Edgecution. This ensured a fair fight between the three rivals. The highlights included Reigns Powerbombing Bryan through the announce table only to be floored by Edge with a Spear off the steel steps.

It was the first time since his heel turn that Reigns seemed vulnerable when Bryan locked in the Yes! Lock and Edge the Crossface. But Uso interfered at the last minute to turn the tide in Reigns' favor.

Reigns hit the Con-Chair-To on Edge and double-pinned both challengers to retain the championship convincingly. The WWE Universe was disappointed at the outcome, but it was an excellent booking decision.
