Glorified house show or WrestleMania 2.0?

There are two fan favourites heading into tomorrow's Greatest Royal Rumble match. Of the 50 men, most either want to see Bryan or Braun Strowman emerge victoriously.

Ad

While it would be a sentimental triumph to see Bryan win after being denied the much more important 2014 and 2015 Royal Rumble matches, Strowman needs the win much more.

Ad

Bryan's schedule is booked. He has important feuds with Big Cass and The Miz which will carry him through the warm months. He's set. Strowman? Not so much.

Ad

Strowman is in a strange spot where he's the most over guy on Raw but doesn't have anything to do.

Ad

Denied a meaningful WrestleMania program despite his tremendous year, he won the Raw tag team titles only to relinquish them the next night.

Ad

He's meandered over the past two Raws since.

Ad

Strowman needs something big to keep him hot, and while the 50-man Royal Rumble match basically amounts to a glorified exhibition, a victory would still keep him in fans' minds and show that the company has tremendous confidence in him.

Hopefully, his picture will clear up following the next match tomorrow night...
