10 Times WWE Rewrote Its History Books
9. Roman Reigns Was About To Win At WM 31
We've been told many times, over the last two years, that if Seth Rollins hadn't interrupted Roman Reigns' WWE Championship match with Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 31, 'The Big Dog' would have been celebrating his maiden world title win in Santa Clara.
But that's not how many of us remember it. Roman had just eaten an F-5 from the 'Beast Incarnate' when his former running mate came running down the entrance ramp, briefcase in tow.
Had it not been for Rollins, it's likely (in kayfabe terms, anyway) that Lesnar would have recorded another routine WrestleMania victory, and left the arena with the title still firmly around his waist.
But that, of course, wouldn't do much to advance the feud between Roman and Seth (nor protect the company's franchise player). So, as you were.
