#5 Hit on WWE Survivor Series 2021: Roman Reigns beats Big E
Survivor Series 2021's main event saw an epic clash between Roman Reigns and Big E. The two powerhouses looked to make a strong statement in the battle for brand supremacy.
It was a well-booked match that ended the show on a good note. The rivalry between the two superstars genuinely looked personal, especially after everything unfolded between The Bloodline and The New Day over the last couple of weeks.

The bout allowed both superstars to look strong, which was great. We saw Paul Heyman giving a passionate pep talk to Roman Reigns, which doesn't usually happen. It helped cement Big E as an equal threat to The Tribal Chief, making their match more enjoyable.
Both world champions used the entire squared circle and the area surrounding the ring, turning everything they could spot into a weapon. E came close to pinning Reigns, but the latter eventually emerged victorious at Survivor Series.
Although Reigns got a clean victory over Big E, the WWE Champion did not look weak, unlike some of the Tribal Chief's previous opponents like Finn Balor or his alter-ego, the Demon King. E will now prepare for his title bout against No.1 contender Seth Rollins.
On the other hand, we also learned on Survivor Series that Brock Lesnar's suspension is no longer in effect. Could we see The Beast Incarnate return to the Blue brand soon?
It's worth mentioning that Vince McMahon made multiple appearances at WWE Survivor Series, which rigorously promoted The Rock's new movie, Red Notice, starring Gal Gadot and Ryan Reynolds. The Great One apparently gifted the Golden Egg of Cleopatra, one of the props from the movie, to McMahon, and it was stolen after Roman Reigns visited the Chairman.
While The Tribal Chief denied any interest in the jewel-laden egg, he hinted that his next contract would be worth the same treasure. Vince McMahon demanded an investigation into who took his prized possession. We will find out more about it on this week's RAW.
Reigns used a modified version of Rock Bottom in his match at Survivor Series, prompting the entire arena to erupt with "Rocky" chants. He also refused to pay any heed when McMahon tried to talk to him about The Rock. Could it be some kind of foreshadowing in the process?
