WWE SummerSlam: 3 Things WWE secretly told us through Seth Rollins' win over Brock Lesnar

WWE produced one of the best pay-per-views of 2019 with SummerSlam as it was filled with nostalgia and memorable moments. It started during the kickoff show where Edge returned to spear Elias, while Rowan attacked Buddy Murphy during the latter's match against Apollo Crews.

Also, the IIconics lost their rematch for the Women's Tag Team Championship against Nikki Cross and Alexa Bliss. In the main show, Goldberg beat Dolph Ziggler in a very short, yet brutal match, while AJ Styles and Becky Lynch retained their United States Championship and Raw Women's Championship respectively.

Another anticipated match was the Fiend vs. Finn Balor and that match was won by the former in astounding fashion. Trish Stratus was another legend on the card and she was defeated by Charlotte Flair in a thrilling contest that surpassed expectations. The biggest talking point of the night, though, came in the match between Brock Lesnar and Seth Rollins, where an injured Rollins overcame the Beast to become the new Universal Champion.

In this slideshow, we are going to take a look at the three things WWE secretly told us through Rollins' win.

#3 Paul Heyman and Vince McMahon do not want a part-time champion

One big positive that can be taken out of the result is the fact that both Paul Heyman and Vince McMahon do not seem to like the idea of a part-time champion in Brock Lesnar, who shows up maybe once or twice a month.

Seth Rollins, over the last year or so, has made the Universal Championship a prized title with regular defenses; if Lesnar held on to it, it would have lost its relevance yet again. It will be interesting to see who emerges as the new challenger to the Architect for the Universal title.

#2 Brock Lesnar might not be back in the WWE title picture anytime soon

This is the most obvious conclusion that can be made after seeing Lesnar lose clean to Rollins. Brock might not show up on either Raw or SmackDown anytime soon, and when he does, expect him to be involved in a singles feud rather than a championship one.

Lesnar doesn't really need titles around his waist to draw crowds. He is a man event attraction regardless of championship crowns. Being a household name enhances his drawing power.

Heyman will hopefully recognize the fact that Brock can be much more useful if he is used irregularly. He has been the company's biggest draw. With the move to FOX on the horizon, Lesnar could possibly be drafted to SmackDown to boost ratings during the initial run of the blue brand on the bigger network.

#1 Seth Rollins is going to be the biggest superstar in the Heyman Era

The new Universal Champion

Seth Rollins has beaten Brock Lesnar twice on the two biggest shows of the year, WrestleMania and Summerslam. It is evident how important Rollins is to the WWE. Moving forward, he will likely remain the centerpiece on the flagship show, Raw.

In the build-up to this SummerSlam match against The Beast, Rollins was positioned as the underdog; Lesnar beat the hell out of Rollins on multiple occasions and the Architect came into this match injured. This time out, he didn't need a low blow to gain the upper hand; instead, Rollins beat Lesnar as clean as it can get.

This victory makes Rollins look very strong. Currently, there aren't many on the roster who can realistically challenge him for the Universal Championship. Personally, I would love to see Kevin Owens take on the Architect, but Vince McMahon wouldn't want two faces pitted against each other, so only time will tell what's next for the new Universal Champion.
