#2 What we wanted: More Roman Reigns vs Braun Strowman; What we got: Strowman injured

Reigns attacked Strowman after The Monster Among Men’s match against Kalisto

The Braun Strowman vs Roman Reigns feud has been extremely intriguing and one of the best things about Raw since Wrestlemania 33 ended. It's safe to say that the WWE Universe wanted to see some more action between The Big Dog and The Monster Among Men.

While we did get that, it was to set up Braun being written off of TV as he takes the time to recover from a legitimate injury which will see him needing surgery. It's a real disappointment and not one that is the fault of the WWE's creative team.

It's an unfortunately, timed injury and we hope to see Strowman back inside the squared circle sooner rather than later. As for Reigns, reports from WrestlingInc suggest he will go up against The Miz in a short-term program. What can we say other than, AWESOME!
