Brock Lesnar Defeats John Cena

Lesnar and Cena’s showdown was the highlight of the night, and the most anticipated fight in the SummerSlam line-up. While many believed Lesnar would take the win, Hulk Hogan threw his support firmly behind Cena going into the match, tweeting, “Just talked to my champion John Cena and I’ve never seen him more confident brother.”

Lesnar immediately gained the upper hand, hitting Cena with a string of punches and German suplexes, totally 16 suplexes by the end of the night. This isn’t Lesner’s first championship win, the intimidating wrestler is the youngest WWE heavyweight titleholder, having taken the title from Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson when he was 25 in 2002.
