Seth Rollins beats Brock Lesnar to win his second WWE Universal Championship

Seth Rollins won his second WWE Universal Championship after an outstanding win over Brock Lesnar in the main event. 

Rollins had won the title from Lesnar back at Wrestlemania 35, but the 'Beast Incarnate' took it back when he cashed in his 'Money In The Bank' contract at the Extreme Rules last month. Even in this contest, the former UFC Champion completely manhandled Rollins with some brutal blows. Not only during the contest but even in the lead up to the event, the 'Beast' had done a lot of damage to the former member of 'The Shield'. Lesnar, who became the youngest ever WWE Champion back in Summerslam 2002 was constantly targetting Rollins' injured ribs. Nonetheless, 'The Architect' had the last laugh with a frog splash to Lesnar through an announce table, followed by 2 Curb Stomps to pick up the win. 

Believe it or not but as soon as Rollins emerged triumphant, he received thunderous applause from the crowd. Surprisingly, the same crowd was booing him when Lesnar was all over for him and he was hardly putting up a fight.
