Roman Reigns defends the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship.

This had a lot of the Roman Reigns main event match features that suck: you get him controlling things way too much w/ spotty (in regards to how interesting it is) work on top, melodramatic dialogue of course (even though it wasn't actually THAT bad this time - still annoying tho), Bloodline run-ins, a super lame, energy-sucking finish, but goddamn it, there was still that magic in the air that this match was bound to have. There was close to zero fucking chance that Sami Zayn was gonna win the World Championship here, especially right before WrestleMania, but he still made me believe. One of the best, man. One of the very best. ***3/4

This felt like the usual lame, tired Roman Reigns match but with a nuclear crowd. It followed all the same story beats, had the shitty dialogue, the Bloodline run ins and one pretty decent hope spot before, in fact, they decide to fuck over a white hot babyface to further feed the 2023 equivalent of Reign of Terror HHH. Actually, that's probably an insult to Small Paul and his Reign of Terror, there were at least two matches during that time period that I actively enjoyed. Roman hasn't had one the entire time he's been the MCU heel villain champion. He sucks. Maybe ** because of Sami busting his ass and the crowd being on fire, but not much more than that.
