5 Reasons Drew McIntyre is a better top heel than Braun Strowman

#5 Braun Strowman looks like a choke artist

Can't win the big one

SummerSlam, 2017.

No Mercy, 2017.

Royal Rumble, 2018.

Elimination Chamber, 2018.

Hell in a Cell, 2018.

Five massive matches; four of them for the Universal Championship, one of them for the right to fight for it in the main event of Wrestlemania. Braun Strowman was a part of all of these matches.

And he didn't win any of them. Now, there are mitigating circumstances. He was not pinned at SummerSlam, or the Royal Rumble, and eliminated every other man in the Elimination Chamber match.

The Hell in a Cell match went to a no contest. He was only pinned twice. He didn't win, but he also only lost twice.

Were he any other Superstar, this would be a positive, but Braun Strowman is not any other Superstar. Braun Strowman is supposed to be the Monster among Men.

He is ostensibly this indestructible force that destroys everything in its path. But when the lights are brightest, he has failed to get the job done. Such failure paints him as a choke artist because his character has created expectations that his booking has not delivered.

Drew McIntyre suffers from no such stigma. To be sure, he hasn't contended for the Universal Championship yet, but he has been successful every single time the lights have been brightest. Because he hasn't fought for the championship, he has not lost either.

As such, while Braun Strowman's track record paints him as a choke artist, McIntyre's ensures that when he does get a chance to wrestle for the Universal Championship, the audience will buy into him as a winner, because they have not been told otherwise.
