#4. Seth Rollins joins an elite group of wrestlers

Seth Rollins is the new Universal Champion

Seth Rollins picked up perhaps the biggest upset win of the night last night when he managed to defeat Brock Lesnar inside three minutes to secure his first ever Universal Championship. Rollins has been pushing for the title ever since it was created back in 2016 but lost to Finn Balor at SummerSlam 2016 when the title was introduced.

Rollins now joins just Brock Lesnar and Roman Reigns in an elite group of wrestlers who have held the Universal and WWE Championships. Lesnar took the title from Goldberg at WrestleMania 33 before Roman Reigns defeated him for the title at SummerSlam last year, Brock reclaimed the Championship at Crown Jewel in November and dropped the title in quite a short match at WrestleMania last night.

Rollins has now won both the World Championship and the Universal Championship by using the Curb Stomp.
