What if The Fiend had attacked Braun Strowman at WWE Clash of Champions?

#2 A Play On Wyatt Family History

Braun Strowman's history as part of the Wyatt Family could add a wrinkle to his story with The Fiend.

When WWE main roster fans first got a acquainted with Braun Strowman, it was in the context of him being the biggest addition to Bray Wyatt’s faction, The Wyatt Family. He played a heater role, not wrestling all that much, but getting acclimated to life on the road and working around more experienced talents to prepare him for bigger things. Meanwhile, he offered the complementary benefit of his sheer size and look adding some extra credibility to the heel group.

When Strowman was ready, he broke out on his own, and WWE dropped any references to his past ties to the faction. Strowman has mostly steered clear of Wyatt, Erick Rowan, and Luke Harper since, though. If he actually were to have a proper program with The Fiend, might WWE call on their shared history?

The answer would largely come down to preferences of the creative powers that be, and there’s certainly a case to be made that the two have been separate on screen long enough that WWE wouldn’t need to acknowledge a link. Strowman could play an offbeat voice of reason, though, trying to talk sense into Wyatt in referencing his relatively sane days before he transformed into The Fiend.
