10 Worst WWE Matches Of 2018
10. Brock Lesnar Vs Roman Reigns (WrestleMania 34)
There was something depressingly familiar about Brock Lesnar's WrestleMania 34 victory over Roman Reigns.
Worst of all, it mattered not what either men did anyway. The boos, beachballs and boredom buried within the audience became the brutal truth of the issue between the two, rather than the kayfabe one the company had limply tried to establish. And what an utterly f*cking absurd story it was.
After a year of beating everybody - everybody - with a single F5, Lesnar delivered so many to 'The Big Dog' that finishing moves as a concept began to lose meaning. Designed around triggering the biggest reactions from crowds and teasing conclusions, the F5s failed at both. Over, and over and over again.
The two weren't doing anything outwardly bad, but the New Orleans faithful let their emotions flow like Roman's wasted blood. His claret only made them blue, meaning they missed Lesnar's actual victory. Of course they did - they weren't really looking for it. One had to wonder how Roman felt as Lesnar dragged a jagged arm across his head for the instructed gash. Especially when no comeback of significance was permitted before the winning fall. Stone Cold Steve Austin at WrestleMania 13, this - unsurprisingly - was not.
