Tapping out to a Kimura Lock wasn’t quite the ending Finn Bálor envisioned for his Universal Championship bout with Brock Lesnar. But the Irishman was willing to call it a moral victory, recasting Lesnar’s post-match beatdown of him as a reflection of the fact that he had, against all odds, made The Conqueror into a believer and asserted himself as a threat. Bobby Lashley? Not quite so easily convinced.
The All Mighty and Lio Rush hit the ring to talk themselves up at Bálor’s expense — a bit of overcompensation, Finn reasoned, for Lashley’s near-immediate exit from the Royal Rumble Match. The Intercontinental Champion responded by ruthlessly dropping the Irishman three times before Rush draped his shirt over the fallen Superstar’s body. It was a demoralizing ending to The Extraordinary Man’s fairy-tale run at the Universal Title, but there might be a silver lining for the fallen David: This time, Goliath seems to be coming to him.
