We should all still be shocked as WrestleMania opened with the Universal Championship. I have come to expect Brock Lesnar ending the show, but to see him in the opener would be surprising in itself. But the surprises just kept on coming.

It seemed to be following the normal pattern of a Brock Lesnar match. Lesnar assaulted Rollins for a few minutes and began the suplex party. I think a lot of fans were expecting Brock Lesnar to destroy Rollins and continue his never-ending Universal Championship reign. Then Rollins stunned Brock with a low blow. Three curb stomps later and Brock Lesnar had just lost the Universal title in about three minutes.

It will be exciting to actually see a Universal Championship on Raw on a weekly basis again. What will happen with Lesnar? I doubt if at this point most WWE fans truly care. It was high time that his reign end.
