At Royal Rumble 2018, Brock Lesnar defended his WWE Universal Championship in a chaotic Triple Threat Match against two of the most dominant forces in WWE—Braun Strowman and Kane. With no disqualifications and no count-outs, this was set to be an all-out war between three monsters of the ring.
An Explosive Start
From the opening bell, the action was intense. Strowman wasted no time going after Lesnar, delivering a stiff knee to the champion’s face that momentarily stunned The Beast Incarnate. Lesnar, visibly angered, responded with a thunderous right hand before hitting a massive German suplex on Kane. However, Strowman quickly overpowered Lesnar, tossing him across the ring like a ragdoll.
Carnage at Ringside
The fight soon spilled outside the ring, where the destruction escalated. Strowman showcased his brute strength by slamming Lesnar through an announcers’ table. Not to be outdone, Lesnar retaliated by delivering a brutal F-5 to Strowman through another table. Meanwhile, Kane recovered and used steel steps to weaken both of his opponents, attempting to seize control of the match.
Lesnar then targeted Strowman with a shocking display of power, hitting him with a steel chair multiple times. But The Monster Among Men refused to stay down. In response, Lesnar delivered another F-5 to Kane onto the remains of the announcers’ table, looking to eliminate him from the equation.
The Final Moments
As the battle raged on, Strowman nearly secured the victory after planting Lesnar with a massive Running Powerslam, but Kane broke up the pinfall just in time. In a desperate move, Kane attempted a Chokeslam on Lesnar, but the champion countered with a final F-5, driving Kane onto a steel chair. With Kane incapacitated, Lesnar quickly covered him for the three-count, successfully retaining his Universal Championship.
Aftermath
Despite Strowman’s dominant performance, Lesnar once again proved why he was the reigning Universal Champion. The match was a brutal display of power, destruction, and resilience, solidifying Lesnar’s road to WrestleMania 34 while leaving Strowman and Kane in his wake.
