Brock Lesnar may end up returning to the Octagon to fight Jon Jones someday, but for now he’s still taking care of business in the squared circle.

Defending his WWE Universal Championship in the main event of SummerSlam on Sunday in Brooklyn, Lesnar overcame the odds by walking out with the title despite being booked in a Fatal 4-Way match with WWE poster boy Roman Reigns, fearsome veteran Samoa Joe, and the mammoth Braun Strowman.

Lesnar’s role in the match saw him get off to his usual hot start, taking his opponents to “Suplex City” before he was shut down by Strowman.
