At WWE SummerSlam, Roman Reigns battled Brock Lesnar one last time.
The two powerhouses have clashed many times over the years, dating back to WWE WrestleMania 31 in 2015. Most recently, “The Tribal Chief” defeated Lesnar at WrestleMania 38 to unify the WWE Championship and the Universal Championship. “The Beast Incarnate” later returned to WWE on the June 17 episode of SmackDown and attacked Reigns to set up the rematch, which has been billed as their final encounter.
Here’s how the match broke down, courtesy of our play-by-play coverage:
Lesnar caught Reigns off-guard by putting on a cowboy hat and riding a tractor to the ring.
Standing on the tractor, he grabs a microphone and introduces himself as a “country boy” who’s going to beat Reigns.
