WWE Starrcade 2019: 5 Reasons why Vince McMahon won't allow Braun Strowman to beat The Fiend for the Universal Championship

#3 To avoid short title reigns

WWE will refrain from repeating their mistake

It’s been one month since ‘The Fiend’ defeated Seth Rollins at WWE Crown Jewel 2019 to win the Universal Championship. In the last four weeks, we have seen him successfully defend his Championship against Daniel Bryan and might do the same against Braun Strowman on Sunday.

WWE has previously received a lot of backlash from the fans for the short title reigns of Brock Lesnar. The Creative will definitely look to avoid booking The Fiend in a similar fashion. He is likely to engage in multiple intense rivalries for the title before he finally drops the title to someone on SmackDown.

Therefore, at Starrcade 2019, The Fiend will walk out with his title safely wrapped around his hand after laying waste to the ‘Monster Among Men’ inside the cage. Surely, a win for Braun Strowman will come across as a huge surprise but there’s a very slight chance of that being possible.
