Could be great but we all know he is another mountain for Roman to climb. So what's the point of getting excited?

The company that hired Low-Ki, Danielson, Cesaro, Hero, Punk. But the best they've had is Braun?

He's good at his role.
He can be a huge star if they let him. But remember, nobody comes before Roman in Vince's eyes.

Braun has the potential to be a superstar. He could literally be the next Andre the Giant. A monster of superhuman quality who could be a dominant unbeaten champion for YEARS.
But WWE doesn't realize what they have. They have only created this monster so that Roman Reigns has a monster to overcome...because, you know, Roman Reigns is a huge underdog.....because underdogs usually always win, and brag about it.
WWE is short sighted and they are going to sacrifice all of the positives that could come from Braun in an attempt to continue the failed Roman Reigns experiment. But Vince really has no choice at this point. He's all in on Roman. If Vince pulls back now, it'll be like him admitting he was wrong, and Vince McMahon will go down swinging before he EVER admits he was wrong.

I've become a huge fan of his over the last year. I wouldn't go as far to say he's the best thing that's happened in the last 15 years, but his return this past week and the 'I'M NOT FINISHED WITH YOU!' segment from a few months back are my two favourite Raw segments since the Draft last year.

Easy now. The Shield, Bayley vs. Sasha Banks, Samis road to the NXT title, AJ Styles, and many others have happened in the past fifteen years. That said I'm a fan of Braun and he's one of a few highlights of Raw week-to-week. Bayley v Sasha is the most overrated happening in pro wrestling in well over 15 years. Truth.

I dont agree hes the greatest thing in 15 years but they totally struck gold with Braun Strowman. Hes freakishly strong and incredibly agile for a man his size. And above all else, he is believable. But its WWE's job to use him correctly. He should not be beatable one on one. Not by Roman. Not Cena. Not by Rollins, Joe, Wyatt, whoever. And for the love of God keep him away from Lesnar. The only way he should be losing is in multi man matches where he isnt involved in the finish.
You keep him and Lesnar apart long enough, you have a program that will be must see TV somewhere down the line.

Braun has been a pleasant surprise, and they've already gotten way more out of him than I think any of us could have ever anticipated. With that being said, he's certainly no Brock Lesnar, and he's definitely not the best thing to happen in over a decade.

If it isn't CM Punk, random small indy guys, the Four Horsewomen, NXT, or the Kevin Owens/Sami Zayn feud, then I guess nothing else matters.
I personally like Braun Strowman, I think he is gold for the WWE, and I think he will still be over once his feud with Roman is over with. Vince is gonna want Braun vs. Lesnar eventually.

They think monsters are meant to be beaten by the hero but that shouldnt be the case in wrestling. To build a monster you have to have even your big babyfaces lose to them and not be given the back and forth booking. Look at Lesnar. He came back and lost immediately to Cena. But once they had him destroy Cena at Summer Slam that was when he began to be the unstoppable beast. Of course losing to Goldberg didnt help him after the fact. No reason WWE cant keep Lesnar/Braun from each other from now until Mania. Brock can work with Joe, Reigns, Rollins, Balor and even Wyatt. And if they want, do Lesnar Vs Braun at Mania. for title or not for title who cares. As long as we get AJ/Nakamura for SD at Mania they can do whatever they want for RAW.

I enjoy Braun as a big man. But see absolutely NOTHING special in the guy. Would rather see him stay the muscle for Bray Wyatt, who I would rather see used better.

not in the slightest. he's fine, he's entertaining, he's booked mostly well compared to the rest of the roster. but lets be realistic here, the guy is a big strong dude who hits power moves and yells. thats not "the best thing ever"

Nobody is gonna care about Braun again once he's done beating down Roman. Same way nobody cared about Braun when he was beating down jobbers and feuding with Sami Zayn. Braun is over because he's getting the upper hand on Roman and had a couple of decent matches with the Big Show. nail meets head

That said I'm a fan of Braun and he's one of a few highlights of Raw week-to-week. I would personally take Braun over all of that minus AJ. He's the only reason I watch Raw right now. Strowman is a gold mine of money if they play this right. You have a guy that's a flat out heel but is getting arguably the biggest face reaction every time he shows up on tv. My biggest fear is that they're going to end up giving him the same treatment they gave Rusev in his run with Cena. He'll be made to look strong, get fed to Brock and then he'll be forgotten about on a grand scale. They have the opportunity to make him a major player, but knowing them they'll flush it down the toilet.

He's more impressive than The Great Khali that's for sure.

Sasha is the worst botch artist I've seen in 15 years.
