These superstars desperately need to win their matches at WrestleMania Backlash

#2 Braun Strowman (WWE Championship match at WrestleMania Backlash)

This title match could deliver the best bout of the night

Bobby Lashley is set to put his WWE Championship on the line at WrestleMania Backlash in a triple-threat match against Drew McIntyre and Braun Strowman. This match could see a potential title change, and it is Strowman who needs a win more than the other two superstars. Lashley has had a good run with the title, and McIntyre has proven himself to be one of the best fighting champions in WWE history.

Braun Strowman, on the other hand, has never won the WWE Championship. Every time he gains momentum and gets a title shot, he fails to get his hands on the gold at the last moment. Unfortunately, this affects his push, and he again has to build from scratch. The creative need to avoid this repetitive booking at WrestleMania Backlash.

Strowman has undergone a massive transformation to pose a credible threat on the WWE RAW roster. He has improved inside the ring and deserves to be a part of intense title feuds. Winning the WWE Championship at WrestleMania Backlash will allow him to feud with the likes of McIntyre and Lashley after the pay-per-view. A good title run has the potential to finally do justice to Strowman’s booking on the Red brand.
