7 unlikely alliances that formed in WWE in 2019

#5 Seth Rollins and Braun Strowman

Strowman and Rollins

Seth Rollins lived up to his nickname 'The Beast Slayer', and defeated Brock Lesnar for the Universal Championship at SummerSlam this year. While no one expected an injured Rollins to get a second win over The Beast Incarnate in the same year, WWE surprised us all with the result of the match.

The following night on RAW, AJ Styles stepped up to the Universal Champion and faced him in a champion vs. champion match in the main event. The match had a familiar ending, where Gallows and Anderson interrupted Rollins during the match and beat him down.

What we didn't see coming was an interruption from The Monster Among Men. Just when The OC was about to lay out the champ, Braun Strowman came out to make the save.

Strowman's interruption led to a match between him and The Phenomenal One for the United States Championship last week on RAW. The bout ended with The Good Brothers costing Strowman the US title. The OC tried to avenge what Strowman did to them, but Seth Rollins came out and returned Strowman's favor to him.

Rollins and Strowman helping each other led to the two men teaming up against Gallows and Anderson, and winning the RAW Tag Team titles later that night.
