Joe became the new #1 contender after beating Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins, Finn Balor and Bray Wyatt in the Fatal 5 Way main event of tonight’s WWE Extreme Rules pay-per-view.

Great Balls of Fire takes place on July 9th from the American Airlines Center in Dallas, Texas. You can see a new video promo for the pay-per-view above. This will be Lesnar’s first title defense since winning the title from Bill Goldberg at WrestleMania 33 in early April.
