5 Big things that could happen if Goldberg beats Braun Strowman at WrestleMania 36

#2. Last World title opportunity for Braun Strowman

Will WrestleMania cement Braun Strowman's fate?

Braun Strowman is a sad yet classic case of WWE's inability to book 'giants' well after Andre The Giant. The Big Show is the most famous example of all and many feared that Strowman would follow a similar path.

His singles run in 2016 got off to a hot start and by mid-2017, he was too popular to remain a heel. He was getting babyface reactions and it was only a matter of time before he would insert himself into the Universal Championship picture.

After an incredible performance at SummerSlam 2017, Strowman would challenge Lesnar and lose, starting a run where he would always fail to win the big one. In the eyes of many, Strowman should have been the Universal Champion when he faced Lesnar the first time, but even in defeat, he recovered well.

However, by Elimination Chamber 2018, his status as WWE's hottest superstar would fade with one unfortunate spear by Roman Reigns. Since then, he's failed to capture the big one and a loss to Goldberg could possibly end any future World title aspirations.
