First though, why not rewind to last summer when Braun Strowman was a wrecking ball intent on making Paul Heyman gasp and Brock Lesnar hurt?

Don't waste any time in skipping straight to the main event here; there wasn't much else to enjoy at SummerSlam 2017. Matches like John Cena vs. Baron Corbin, Big Cass vs. Big Show, Finn Bálor vs. Bray Wyatt and Shinsuke Nakamura vs. Jinder Mahal were meaningless. AJ Styles vs. Kevin Owens was fun, but it's the headliner you need to see again.

A Fatal-4-Way match for the Universal Title had Lesnar defending against Strowman, Roman Reigns and Samoa Joe. It was over 20 minutes of sheer mayhem, and it remains one of the best pay-per-view matches WWE have promoted in the past 12 months.

Plus, seeing Braun hurl a padded chair at Reigns like it's a lethal weapon is always fun.
