After some help from Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns defeated Rated R star Edge to retain his Universal title. Edge was about to strike Reigns with a spear when the latter's former Shield ally Rollins distracted him. After the champion took advantage of the diversion and won the match, Edge and Rollins got into a brawl outside the ring.
Meanwhile, Reigns stood in the center of the ring to showcase his dominance. However, he was interrupted by former WWE champion John Cena, who made a long-awaited return to the industry. Reigns took the mic and said “Now the world can acknowledge me” and Cena’s music hit cutting short his speech.
After surprising the crowd, John Cena stormed into the ring, mocking Roman Reigns with his iconic "You Can't See Me" gesture and the pay-per-view event came to an end.
After the show, Money in the Bank went off air, John Cena said “I certainly wanted to come out here to let all you know that I’M BACK.”
John Cena's return to WWE now makes things look interesting as Edge and Seth Rollins, both, have their eyes set on Reigns' Universal Championship.
According to several media reports, Roman Reigns is expected to face John Cena at the next SummerSlam, which will take place next month in Las Vegas.
