Ambrose and Reigns' brotherhood added a compelling element. They went from friends to rivals and back in a whirlwind bout. Ambrose wasn't just the guy brought in to eat the pin. He was an explosive ingredient that boosted the action in a big way.
Lesnar was his usual captivating-conqueror self. WWE did well to soften the blow of his loss by having him go through two tables and feel the sting of a steel chair in order to fall short.
