DALLAS — Things got complicated inside Hell in a Cell last night, as the unexpected arrival of a bearded, furious Brock Lesnar threw the Universal Title main event into such chaos that it ended in the first-ever no-contest ruling to occur inside the structure. So, understandably, everyone involved was demanding satisfaction on Raw.
Universal Champion Roman Reigns wanted a piece of Lesnar. Jilted challenger Braun Strowman demanded another opportunity at the title. And Acting General Manager Baron Corbin opted to split the difference, sanctioning a Triple Threat title match between Reigns, Strowman and Lesnar for WWE Crown Jewel, the return to Saudi Arabia that will occur on Friday, Nov. 2.
Strowman was not pleased with this announcement. Paul Heyman, who appeared after the announcement with the Hell in a Cell door in tow, most certainly was — after all, now Lesnar has another opportunity to raise his stock in advance of any UFC plans he has. Reigns was less than impressed with Corbin’s maneuvers as well, but The Lone Wolf reassured the champion he might not have to worry about it: Given that the GM had seen Reigns’ injury report, he was more than happy to capitalize on the champion’s wear and tear, sanctioning a title bout between The Big Dog and … himself.
