#5 The Next Braun Strowman

The next Braun Strowman, what does that even mean? Well, if you look back at Strowman's career from 2016 till now you would have noticed a bizarre pattern, as this is a sequence that has seen the former Raw Tag Team Champion soar in the highest of highs in the WWE, and at the very same time drop to the lowest of lows.

Everyone knows the wasted opportunity that is Braun Strowman's push, as this was a man that many thought would be main eventing WrestleMania, and winning countless World Titles, but in reality, Strowman has only managed to team with a child at WrestleMania, and feud with SNL's hosts.

Another superstar that seems primed to meet this fate is Drew McIntyre, as there is something about McIntyre's push that seems like he will never reach the heights many fans expect him too. As this week on Raw, we saw a WrestleMania rematch between Roman Reigns and Drew McIntyre (thanks to the Wild Card Rule) which was set up as McIntyre's revenge, but when it concerns Roman Reigns, his opponent will never get any benefit from the match.

The match was cut short by Shane McMahon with Elias, a duo that has problems with Reigns over on the blue brand, as that interference led to this match ending in a DQ, and we all this only happened so that neither of these stars loses any credibility. But let's be honest, the only person to lose nothing here was Reigns, as McIntyre leaning on a 50-year-old non-wrestler to help him get things done in the ring is just pathetic booking.

Why can't WWE just let Drew dominate each week on Raw? And when was the last time Drew actually got a chance to win a huge match by himself? At least when Strowman was being built up as a monster in 2017 he was beating the likes of John Cena and Roman Reigns, while Drew can't even get the job done once without getting help from another heel.

If McIntyre does go the way of Strowman, then WWE should look back on moments like this as they only have themselves to blame for not giving the former NXT Champion the momentum he needed to become the next top star.
