#5 A special look at the history between Bray Wyatt and Universal Champion Braun Strowman
Roman Reigns’ decision to pull out of WrestleMania 36 caused WWE to bring in Braun Strowman as the last-minute replacement. The latter went on to beat Goldberg at the ‘Grandest Stage of Them All’ and got his hands on the WWE Title for the first time.
Even though Strowman’s push was unplanned, he was at the right place and the right time, and now the creatives have a wonderful opportunity to book the ‘Monster Among Men’ in a deserving fashion.
After winning his title, Strowman fired a warning to the rest of the division and stated that he wants to be a fighting Champion. While he was keen on inviting challengers, it wasn't particularly surprising that a former ally showed a keen interest in taking back his title.
By the looks of it, we are now headed towards a Championship rivalry between Strowman and ‘The Fiend’ Bray Wyatt.
Strowman has encountered ‘The Fiend’ before. But this time, the storyline is personal. The history between both these Superstars dates back to their time in the ‘Wyatt Family’ which makes this feud all the more interesting.
Strowman needed an important title run and this storyline is the perfect way to kick it off. Tonight, we will take a good look at their history, as the SmackDown creatives are keen to remind the WWE Universe of the duo's story so far before they start scripting another chapter.
