WrestleMania season is always full of unexpected twists and unforgettable moments, and this week’s WWE Raw from Madison Square Garden in New York City was no exception. The night ended with a shocking return by Roman Reigns, who took out both CM Punk and Seth Rollins after an intense steel cage main event.

Roman Reigns Returns, Takes Down CM Punk and Seth Rollins

The night’s main event featured a brutal steel cage match between CM Punk and Seth Rollins, two longtime rivals with deep-rooted animosity. The match was filled with hard-hitting action, as both men delivered and kicked out of multiple finishers.

At one point, Punk had the chance to escape the cage, but Rollins challenged him to “finish the fight.” However, before a decisive winner could be determined, Roman Reigns stormed into the match, dragging Rollins out of the cage, making him the official winner by escape.

Reigns wasn’t done. He delivered a Superman Punch and a spear to Rollins, followed by a stomp outside the ring. As WWE officials tried to stop him, Reigns turned his attention to Punk, who was being tended to by Paul Heyman. This only fueled Reigns’ fury, leading him to throw Punk into the cage and deliver another devastating spear before posing as the show ended.
