1) Backstage Concern About Braun Strowman
According to journalist Tom Colohue,there are a lot of “dissenting voices” backstage in WWE who are reportedly not in the corner of Braun Strowman.
There is some backstage concern about whether or not Braun is the right person to be leading the charge on Smackdown. Here is what he said:
“As regards to Strowman, he was the right guy at the right time, but he lucked into this Championship. This was never the plan. Unfortunately for Braun, there is a lot of dissenting voices backstage that aren’t necessarily in his corner. There is a lot of debate almost constantly to whether Strowman is the right guy, but the top-level on SmackDown is it’s so bare at the moment. What I think we’re going to see, is if the Fiend loses, then the Fiend is probably going back to RAW, whereas if The Fiend wins, Roman Reigns is probably returning soon. As regards to Strowman, I’m not sure, and I think that’s a bad sign.”
My Take:
- I feel like Braun is going to drop the belt to Bray Wyatt over the next few months. That will likely come after Braun loses to The Fiend. Personally, I never had Braun penciled in for a long title reign, so this would make sense to me.
