Twitter Reacts to Brock Lesnar, Undertaker, More WWE Extreme Rules 2019 Results

Kevin BergeJul 14, 2019

WWE Extreme Rules 2019 came in with little hype, but the talent delivered in spades. The wrestling was as strong as it has been in months. New and underused stars made the most of the spotlight, and the booking did not hamper them.

While a few results riled up fans and the show did not have too many memorable story moments, this was about as good as WWE can get for a filler pay-per-view.

The biggest moment of the night, though, was also the most controversial. Just as fans were enjoying the workhorses putting in their best efforts, Brock Lesnar returned to reestablish the status quo.

Lesnar Makes Paul Heyman's Spoiler a Reality with a Cash-In on Seth Rollins

Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch showed their dominance together as they sent Baron Corbin and Lacey Evans running in their Extreme Rules mixed tag team match. The Lone Wolf got so aggravated that he ended up hitting the End of Days on The Man.

This set off The Beastslayer, who hit a trio of Stomps on Corbin to seal the win. However, Lesnar ruined the moment as he cashed in on a vulnerable Rollins to reclaim the Universal Championship.

This ending set off fans, who were enjoying a largely successful event. The Beast Incarnate reminded fans that WWE can and will ignore all good will they have built up:

The mixed tag team match was fine though hardly close to the best work on the card. Rollins and Lynch came out looking strong, and The Architect has a clear challenge ahead of him for SummerSlam on August 11. Hopefully, he can overcome that challenge once again.

Undertaker Puts on His Best Performance in Years

The Undertaker did not take long to make up for Super ShowDown. After an embarrassing showing with Goldberg in Saudi Arabia on June 7, The Deadman teamed up with Roman Reigns and put on a great display against Shane McMahon and Drew McIntyre.

This match showcased how 'Taker should be used if he is going to continue to appear. He was a dominant force who hit his biggest moves in succession. He felt like a legend returning to be as unstoppable as he has ever been.

The Deadman looked as good as he has in years, and that was thanks to everyone else giving him space to just be at his best. Fans were clear in their praise of his latest work:

The Big Dog, The Scottish Psychopath and The "Best in the World" finally connected in a way that they have not throughout their feud. This was shockingly a huge step up for the entire feud, and fans were clear in their appreciation:

The New Day Have Captured All the Gold

Big E and Xavier Woods managed to come out of the SmackDown Tag Team Championships Triple Threat with the gold. They hit the Up Up Down Down on Daniel Bryan to take the win.

And Kofi Kingston managed to retain the WWE title after his match with Samoa Joe.

New Day ended the night with all the gold. At some point, this was the expected result.

Kofi will ride tall as the top champion on SmackDown while his friends carry the tag team division:

It was a somewhat mixed reaction New Day got to this moment. This is the sixth time they have captured the tag team championships, and it could even be argued they are taking away from the spectacle of Kingston as WWE champion:

However, it also gives weight to the idea New Day has truly taken over the blue brand. In much the same way as The Shield gained credibility by capturing multiple titles, Kingston, Big E and Woods now feel truly unstoppable as a stable.

AJ Styles Steals Ricochet's United States Championship

In their latest fight for the U.S. Championship, AJ Styles finally overwhelmed Ricochet.

However, Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows gave The Phenomenal One an unfair advantage that guaranteed their friend walked out with the gold.

It was another great performance from two of the best in the business. With clearly established roles, they worked well together from start to finish. It was a shame to have Ricochet lose the gold he earned just one show back.

Most fans seemed upset with The One and Only losing his championship so quickly, particularly to Styles, who can win a title at any time:

However, fans speculated that this could be leading to bigger and better things.

Ricochet may have fallen this time, but he did not have help that may soon be coming. Some also speculated that The Club will be getting one more recruit:

Bobby Lashley and Braun Strowman Destroy Everything in Their Path

Bobby Lashley and Braun Strowman barely touched the ring in their Last Man Standing match.

They brawled through the crowd and into the concession stand. The two returned to the arena before The Monster Among Men running powerslammed his opponent off the ramp to take the win.

It was a long match, which led to a divisive reaction from fans as the two men fought until they couldn't throw another punch:

Those who were willing to accept the length of the bout enjoyed the best match Lashley has had since his WWE return in April 2018. It was an absolute war that never stopped:

Hopefully, Strowman's latest victory over The All Mighty is a sign of things to come. The universal champion could certainly use a new challenger.
