The Monster Among Men has been a mainstay on Monday Night Raw since a long time now, but WWE has failed to utilize Braun in a proper manner, and elevate him to the title picture.
Braun was set to become the face of Raw, was getting a great response from the live crowds and was one of the very few Superstars who looked like legit threats to The Beast, Brock Lesnar.

Braun ended up losing to Brock Lesnar at No Mercy 2017. It took Lesnar a single F5 to dispose off the Monster. Since then, Braun has done nothing of worth on the main roster. WWE still hasn't figured out what to do with someone like Strowman at The Grandest Stage Of Them All.
Last year, he was in a throwaway tag team match alongside an 11-year old kid. This year, he would probably become involved with some celebs and destroy a car or two. Let's look at four ways WWE could utilize Braun Strowman on the Mania card, instead of wasting his potential for the second time in a row.
#4 Let him win the Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal match
The annual WrestleMania staple is intended to elevate future stars but hasn't been able to do so ever since its inception.
WWE should strive to actually do something with the winner of the match this year. Let Strowman win the whole thing, and come out on Raw the next night. Strowman could be thrust into the title picture almost immediately after a win of this caliber. Let him become the legit monster he used to be, all over again.
Strowman could begin destroying jobbers left and right again, and finally challenge for the Universal Title at a future PPV. But for this to happen, he needs to win the battle royal at WrestleMania 35. Let Strowman clean the ring in quick succession and throw Superstars out of the ring.
The more dominant his, the better crowd response Braun will get. After spending the past few months getting beaten up by Corbin and co., Braun's aura is fizzling out, and a win like this is needed for him to come back onto the main event scene.

#3 Let Braun end Corbin once and for all
As Mania is approaching near, it is becoming apparent that Corbin isn't set to do anything of note on the show of shows. Why not pit him against The Monster Among Men one final time?
Lashley may be busy defending his Intercontinental title against the Demon, Finn Balor. Drew McIntyre would probably be locking horns with The Big Dog, Roman Reigns. There won't be anyone to have Corbin's back this time.
Corbin has been giving Braun a hard time ever since last year's Crown Jewel PPV. Let Braun Strowman finally have his revenge on the former Raw GM, and beat him to a pulp in front of 80,000 roaring fans.
The fans have yet to see a payoff to Corbin's sneak attack on Braun. The storyline was scrapped abruptly and The Shield took it upon themselves to take care of the dastardly trio. It's time for Braun to take charge and dispose off Corbin for good.
#2 Braun's ultimate revenge
As we've been witnessing since the past several months, the notorious trio of Baron Corbin, Drew McIntyre and Bobby Lashley has been making Braun's life a living hell. This all began when Corbin cost Braun the Universal title match at WWE Crown Jewel last year.
The trio attacked him after he helped Raw win the Interbrand Survivor Series match. Braun was destroyed again at the Elimination Chamber PPV last month. The WWE Universe has yet to see Braun retaliate and it doesn't look good for someone like Strowman to get beaten up and do nothing in return. Maybe WWE is saving the revenge for WrestleMania.
Braun could be shown beating the tar out of Corbin in the backstage area. Later on in the night, he could interfere in the supposed Intercontinental Title match, costing Lashley the title. Finally, Braun could cost McIntyre his possible match against Roman Reigns, finally getting revenge on the trio on The Grandest Stage Of Them All.

#1 Braun should face Taker
The Deadman seems to be doing nothing this year at the Show Of Shows. The Streak is worthless at this point of time, with the score being 24-2. The aura of the streak has completely fizzled out and there's hardly a fan who cares about the once legendary streak anymore.

Why not pit The Deadman one final time against The Monster Among Men? Braun is in need of some much-needed steam to be able to climb to the top of the main roster. Let Braun not only face Taker in his last WrestleMania match, but give him the pin over The Phenom in front of 80,000 fans.
The fans would always remember that no one was able to put down The Undertaker, except three men- Lesnar, Reigns and Strowman. Braun would become a part of the short list of future hall of famers who have beaten Taker in his own yard.
