[SPOILERS Smackdown Main Event] Fun fact...

NSFW

[SPOILERS] So roman reigns wins a handicap match against four guys, three of which, we have good reason to believe, would legitimately hand him his ass one on one. Don't believe? Let's take a closer look:

  • Del Rio - Douchebaggery notwithstanding, this guy is an accomplished greco-roman wrestler. Would pansy-ass greco-roman wrestling actually help in a fight? Well, del Rio did MMA too, and his debut fight is worth mentioning. He won with an overhead belly-to-belly suplex, that broke the other guy's arm. Look it up, it's awesome.

  • Barrett - The humble jobber ironically known as 'king' Barrett was a bare-knuckle boxer in the days of yore, and he has the face to prove it. Reigns' face, on the other hand, makes you suspect he's never bare-knuckle boxed a day in is life. And as much as he likes to cock his fist, his superman punch isn't all that great for shooting (see what I did there?).

  • Rusev - Supposedly trained in Muay Thai in Thailand. How much he can really do is debatable, but it's a fact that he was a rower and power lifter from an eastern European sports school. That's serious stuff, trust me. Rusev is a strong guy. Although Reigns does tend to look really strong too, so the jury's still out on this one.

Sheamus is the odd one out here. I'm not going to argue that he's good at fighting because he's Irish, because that would be stupid.

But Reigns winning a 4 on 1 handicap match against these guys? Gentlemen, I believe that WWE might not, in fact, be a legitimate sporting contest. Could it be... fake?
