#4 Braun Strowman
“The Monster Among Men” returned a couple of weeks ago and picked up right where he left off. Strowman emerged from the back of an ambulance, came to the ring, destroyed Reigns, and challenged “The Big Dog” to an Ambulance Match at the Great Balls of Fire PPV this Sunday. Reigns gladly accepted, and the two seem destined to finally put an end to this fantastic feud that many consider a contender for “Feud of the Year” for 2017.
This past week on Raw, Strowman demanded competition leading up to his match with Roman at GBOF. Titus O’ Neil was happy to oblige The Monster Among Men , and sent Apollo Crews to the ring to challenge Braun in the main event of Raw.
Strowman made quick work of Crews (also giving us the GIF of the year when by kicking Apollo half way across the ring when Crews went for a standing moonsault). He even destroyed Titus after the match, making it clear he was more than ready to take on Reigns this Sunday.
Since returning, Strowman has tormented Reigns at the expense of an ambulance, using the ambulance as a major weapon and tossing Roman at, into, and onto it every chance he gets. However, the man who claims that WWE is his yard now finally gained a little momentum this week when he popped out of an ambulance himself and eventually speared the monster off the stage and through several tables.
No matter what happens at GBOF, Strowman has become a bonafide main eventer on Raw. No superstar has taken the leaps that he has over the past year and there is no question he is ready for a shot at the WWE Universal title, and will probably get his shot with a win over Reigns this Sunday.
