How has it come to this?

After years and years and years of trying to get Roman Reigns cheered before finally accepting the futility of the act and just using both Braun Strowman and former Universal Champion Brock Lesnar to manipulate a situation to stop him getting booed when he finally won the big one, 'The Big Dog' has been cruelly taken out of the hunt completely by a leukemia diagnosis that was the latest in a line of shocks that will forever define this wretched pay-per-view.

Left in his abdicated absence are 'The Monster Among Men' and 'The Beast', but neither currently seems equipped enough to take the red brand title. In some grim irony, Strowman was cooled exponentially by a heel turned designed to heat up absentee Reigns, whilst Brock - a million percent in it for the millions he'll be earning - was all but written out of the storylines by virtue of his SummerSlam loss.

Now isn't the time for a title change, and there's a precedent set for the Saudi Arabia crowd getting a cheap finish in their Universal Title match after the Greatest Royal Rumble debacle earlier this year. Save Braun's big win for another day and distract the irate audience with the old boys in the main event.

Winner: N/A
