Why has Braun Strowman been added to the WWE Championship match, you ask? Well, the simple answer is because we have seen Drew McIntyre vs. Bobby Lashley already, on the Grandest Stage of Them All.

Yes, if Drew McIntyre battled Bobby Lashley again, the result would have been outstanding and the match would have been off the charts! That said, why repeat something we have already seen? Adding Braun Strowman into the title picture gives it a whole new twist, a fresh and unique coat of paint.

Bobby Lashley and Drew McIntyre are clearly the John Cena and Randy Orton of the new era (even though Randy Orton himself is a part of the era!), and the RAW product will indeed revolve around them. They will engage in many fights down the line and the last thing WWE needs to do is make the audience sick of watching them take each other on.

Who do you think walks out with the WWE Championship when these three colossi clash?
