Fans often criticized Roman Reigns for being too heavily pushed, but despite having multiple shots at the Universal Championship, Strowman seems to have avoided those same critics.

This week though, as he was prepping for his fifth title match against the Beast, Strowman's anger got the better of him, leaving a furious Mr. McMahon no choice but to strip the Monster Among Men of his Rumble title match against Lesnar.

Look who just shut down all of Tony Khan's critics! More HERE.

Whilst I've previously written that I'm pleased to see Balor get his due, it does seem rather baffling why the WWE would make the Strowman-Lesnar match (which Strowman had to go through several hoops just to get) in the first place.

Whilst I'm thrilled for the Irishman, I can't help but feel for Strowman, who is seemingly losing his push with each passing week.
