WWE champion Brock Lesnar and Cain Velasquez went one on one in the ring on October 31 for the WWE Championship at Crown Jewel in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
This would be the first time both men would face off against each other in nine years since their big fight at UFC 121 back in 2010 when Cain defeated Lesnar.

Valasquez had a great showing in the early goings of the match by delivering some heavy blows and knees to The Beast.
Both men would deliver a UFC style match. Cain would knock Brock down but it would be the champ that would catch Cain with the Kamura Lock for Cain to tap out.
Brock would ultimately claim his vengeance for his loss against Velasquez at UFC 121 and retain the WWE Championship.
