Seth Rollins To Challenge Brock Lesnar For Universal Title At WWE SummerSlam

Seth Rollins will face Brock Lesnar for the Universal Championship at WWE SummerSlam after winning a 10-man Battle Royal on Raw tonight.

The order of elimination was as follows:

• Cesaro eliminated by Lashley
• Lashley eliminated by Strowman
• Big E eliminated by Zayn
• Zayn eliminated by Orton
• Rey eliminated by Corbin
• Corbin eliminated by Rollins
• Strowman and Reigns eliminated by Rollins
• Orton eliminated by Rollins

Lesnar cashed in his Money in the Bank contract at Extreme Rules after Rollins (and Becky Lynch) retained in the Winners Take All main event against Baron Corbin and Lacey Evans to win the title for a third time.

Rollins defeated Lesnar for the title at WrestleMania 35 before Brock won it back, so while this is a match we have seen a few times now, it is probably the option with the most steam behind it in terms of an opponent for Lesnar.
