Daniel Cormier Forgot The Ending To WWE Extreme Rules Main Event

He’ll get better at it. There are all kinds of ways to spice up a match and one of the most common is to bring in someone from outside to make the match feel more special. This could include anything from a stipulation to someone extra being included. Last weekend WWE included someone extra in a match but things almost went rather bad just before the match was starting.

Last Saturday at WWE Extreme Rules, UFC Hall of Famer Daniel Cormier refereed the show’s main event between Seth Rollins and Matt Riddle in the Fight Pit. Cormier discussed the event on the DC & RC Show (the Extreme Rules portion begins around 3:30), revealing that he was incredibly nervous before the match began. The issue reached the point that Cormier even forgot the finish to the match and had to ask what it was supposed to be again. There is no word on if WWE plans to use Cormier again.

Opinion: The appearance did seem to mean a lot to Cormier and that is always nice to see. He suited the role well and I could see him doing something in WWE again in the future. WWE loves to bring in more mainstream athletes like Cormier and if he happens to be a big wrestling fan who is having a good time, that makes things even better. At least he even remembered the ending too.
