#12 Great Balls of Fire – Brock Lesnar(c) vs Samoa Joe (Universal Championship)
After winning the No.1 Contender’s Match at Extreme Rules, Samoa Joe earned the opportunity to face Brock Lesnar for the Universal Championship. The buildup to the match was fantastic and made Joe look like a monster who would use anything and everything to win the title.
Before the match began, Joe launched a sneak attack on the champion and laid him out with an uranage through the announcement table. The actual match lasted about six minutes but was another action-packed bout similar to the match between Lesnar and Goldberg from WrestleMania 33.
The biggest drawback in this match was Lesnar winning with one F-5, but the match was still fun to watch.
