Brock Lesnar's 10 Best Second-Run WWE Matches

2. Vs. Roman Reigns (WrestleMania 31)

While it's true this match is unfortunately what spawned the now insufferable "Suplex City" catchphrase, that does not detract that Brock Lesnar and Roman Reigns, in Reigns' third PPV singles match, managed to put on one of the greatest main events in WrestleMania history even before its 5-star finish.

Not much good faith was coming from the fans going into this match, of course. Everyone was expecting a sloppy encounter with an inexperienced Reigns unconvincingly winning the WWE Championship from Lesnar. Instead, what they got was a fast-paced, brutal duel with Lesnar absolutely demolishing the Big Dog. Thunderous suplexes and hardway blood from Lesnar brought an intensity that hadn't been seen at WrestleMania in some years.

And, of course, this match will go down in history for its finish, when Seth Rollins cashed in on a prone Reigns and Lesnar, choosing the opportune time to pick up the scraps and walk away with the WWE title.
