WWE Battleground 2015 featured a highly anticipated WWE World Heavyweight Championship match between reigning champion Seth Rollins and “The Beast Incarnate” Brock Lesnar. Rollins, who had controversially won the title by cashing in his Money in the Bank contract at WrestleMania 31, now had to prove he could survive against Lesnar in a one-on-one battle.
From the opening bell, Lesnar wasted no time going on the attack. Rollins, known for his speed and cunning, tried to evade Lesnar’s grasp, but there was no escape. Within moments, Lesnar caught Rollins and delivered a crushing German suplex, sending a clear message that “Suplex City” was open for business.
The onslaught continued as Lesnar relentlessly suplexed Rollins all around the ring. The crowd counted along as Lesnar delivered suplex after suplex, showing no mercy. Rollins, despite being the champion, looked completely outmatched, unable to mount any offense. Every time he tried to escape, Lesnar dragged him back in, throwing him around like a ragdoll.
Lesnar’s dominance reached a peak when he delivered his signature F-5. The match seemed all but over as Lesnar went for the pin, but just as the referee was about to count to three, the lights suddenly went out.
A chilling gong echoed throughout the arena. The crowd erupted as the lights returned, revealing none other than The Undertaker standing face-to-face with Brock Lesnar in the ring. Lesnar, who had ended The Undertaker’s legendary WrestleMania streak the previous year, stared in shock.
Before Lesnar could react, Undertaker struck with a thunderous low blow, dropping “The Beast” to his knees. He then grabbed Lesnar and delivered a devastating Chokeslam, followed by a brutal Tombstone Piledriver. The crowd was in a frenzy as Undertaker stood tall over Lesnar, signaling that their rivalry was far from over.
With Lesnar incapacitated, the referee had no choice but to declare the match a no-contest, meaning Rollins technically retained his WWE World Heavyweight Championship without even landing a significant move on Lesnar.
While the match itself was a showcase of Lesnar’s dominance, the shocking return of The Undertaker stole the show. This encounter reignited one of WWE’s most intense rivalries, setting the stage for a blockbuster rematch between Lesnar and The Undertaker at SummerSlam 2015. Meanwhile, Rollins, though still champion, knew he had barely escaped with his title intact.
