#7 Braun Strowman def. Elias, via disqualification
Storyline: Braun Strowman eliminated five men, including Elias, at Elimination Chamber. The two Superstars have been involved in an on/off rivalry ever since the man formerly known as “The Drifter” won a Triple Threat against Strowman and John Cena in early February.
Segment: Elias’ pre-match mocking of the Anaheim crowd was brought to an end when Strowman’s music hit and the increasingly popular “Monster Among Men” made his way to the ring. Strowman got the win via disqualification after Elias sprayed a fire extinguisher in his face, and the two fought into the backstage area until Elias was able to escape.
Verdict: This segment was okay but we’ve come to expect so much from Strowman every week on Raw, so this was a little underwhelming compared to what we’re used to seeing. Let’s just hope his road to WrestleMania is more exciting than last year!
