WWE Extreme Rules 2018: Analysing and grading each match

#7 Kevin Owens def. Braun Strowman (steel cage match)

Braun Strowman lost the match, but he didn't care!

Match: Braun Strowman survived some early offence from Kevin Owens, including a variation of a Stone Cold Stunner, and was the favourite to get the win when he escaped some handcuffs and climbed to the top of the cage ahead of KO. However, Braun then shoved his opponent through a ringside announce desk from the top of the cage, meaning the victory went to Owens.

Verdict: Wow! This wasn’t one of the main matches that people were talking about heading into Extreme Rules, but it’ll definitely grab a few headlines in the days to come. The match was full of action from the very start and the finish makes it worthy of an A grade. Huge credit to Owens for taking a giant fall for the second PPV in a row.

Grade: A
