#1 Flopped on WWE RAW: Braun Strowman

Braun Strowman could have feuded with someone else on WWE RAW

Braun Strowman’s booking since his return on WWE RAW has been underwhelming. He couldn’t compete for the WWE Championship at Elimination Chamber because it was limited to former WWE Champions. However, he is being kept far away from the title picture even after the pay-per-view, and he is now a part of a storyline that involves Shane McMahon.

Last week on WWE RAW, McMahon implied that Strowman is stupid, and the latter wanted an apology. Shane McMahon insinuated the same thing during his apology and tricked Strowman into following another car out of the arena. This feud will most likely lead to a match at WrestleMania 37, but Strowman deserves to be part of a more significant match at The Grandest Stage of Them All.

There is not much in this rivalry that can help Strowman on WWE RAW after it ends. It might be an absolute necessity to keep Strowman away from the world title picture in order to protect Bobby Lashley. However, the creative could have still invested in feuds to establish Strowman as a credible threat.
