In the latest WWE Chronicle episode on the WWE Network, Braun Strowman discussed the difficult conversation that he had with Vince McMahon before an episode of RAW in January 2019.

Strowman has previously revealed that he was “miserable” at the time, but he changed his mindset after having a heart-to-heart conversation with his boss.

He added in the WWE Chronicle clip, which you can see above, that McMahon told him during the meeting that he was not ready to hold a World Championship.

The Monster Among Men was “p***ed off” to hear that comment but it also motivated him to work even harder.

On-screen, Seth Rollins has been tormenting the Mysterio family for several months on WWE RAW, but the four-time WWE World Champion has actually been a massive help to the up-and-coming Dominik behind the scenes.

Dominik, who lost his debut WWE match against Rollins at SummerSlam, said on the Gorilla Position podcast this week that the former Shield member is “a master at his craft” and he is very thankful for everything that he has taught him so far.
