Can Toronto withstand a Last Man Standing Match between Roman Reigns and Braun Strowman? Barely.
The Great White North was shaken to its core in Raw’s hellacious main event between The Big Dog and The Monster Among Men, as the two Superstars inflicted an unimaginable amount of damage on one another just two weeks before challenging Brock Lesnar for the Universal Title along with Samoa Joe in a Fatal 4-Way Match.
Reigns hit Strowman with the steel steps and Samoan Dropped him through a table. Strowman replied by fast-balling a chair into Reigns’ face and driving him back-first into the LED board when their brawl spilled onto the stage. Reigns finally seemed to have the upper hand when he Speared Strowman down the ramp and made it to his feet, only for Samoa Joe to emerge from the crowd and lock in the Coquina Clutch, putting Reigns to sleep and stopping the count.
The official had no choice but to restart the count once Joe finally released the hold, and The Gift of Destruction took advantage of Joe’s interference. Strowman rose to his feet at eight to claim the win, but it was Joe who had the most ominous words of the night to Roman: “The yard is on lockdown.”
