#1 Chair to the head

Braun Strowman is really going away for a bit and Roman Reigns is going to be the storyline reason for it, which we just covered. Roman interrupted Braun’s one-armed match against Kalisto, assaulting him all around the ring. The pinnacle of the fight came in the form of a few chair strikes, but one of them got more than only his shoulder.

Roman was definitely aiming for Braun’s appendage but as can be seen in the highlight above, the back of the chair was too high up on the intended target and landed right on the back of his head.

Considering WWE’s ongoing legal battles over concussions, it’s a wonder that any foreign object strikes that might possibly come anywhere near the head are given approval.

Roman’s chair shot that grazed the back of Braun’s head was the top botch this week, but did you notice any others? Let us know about them in the comments below. Also, if you see any future Raw or SmackDown botches, let us know by sending them to Mitch on Twitter @MitchNickelson!
