WWE Live Event Results Regensberg, Germany (2/25/17): Chris Jericho receives medical attention after vicious beatdown
WWE’s live event in Regensberg, Germany was filled with high-octane action and interesting matchups. In the main event, Kevin Owens defended his WWE Universal Championship against Roman Reigns in a No-Holds-Barred match, beating the Big Dog and retaining his strap. However, before entering his title matchup, Owens attacked his former friend Chris Jericho who’d come out on crutches wearing a neck-brace.
Blindsiding Jericho from behind, Owens’ vicious attack had to be stopped by referees who were quick to stop the champ from inflicting further damage on his friend-turned-foe. Kevin Owens and Chris Jericho formed an alliance around mid-2016 after Jericho helped the young prodigy win the WWE Universal championship that Owens still holds. ‘Y2J’ himself is presently the WWE United States champion.
