One of the top Champions of the company made his way to the ring on SmackDown this week after missing Super ShowDown on Thursday. Yes, we’re talking about Braun Strowman who walked in for a contract signing segment for an Intercontinental Championship match at WWE Elimination Chamber on March 8.

His opponent-to-be Shinsuke Nakamura made his way out with Cesaro and Sami Zayn by his side. The Monster Among Men was outnumbered as usual, but he didn’t care about it.

The Critic of Critics blamed Strowman for injuring Nakamura last week after slamming him on a piano in the Symphony of Destruction match. Nakamura had required nine staples to his head after the spot.

Strowman did not care about Zayn’s words and told him that he would fight all three of them if he had to. The Liberator took Strowman’s words literally and amended the contact to make it a Handicap match.

Afterward, the three men ganged up once again to beat down the monster, showing that the numbers game could indeed lead to Strowman’s downfall.

While Strowman did not show too much positive attitude earlier, it was good to see him with a change of hairstyle and a change in attitude. He was much more confident and seemed fearless at taking on three men for the title.

Strowman finally got his segment where he seemed like a big Superstar again, and even though we know the match at Elimination Chamber will be silly, it could well end up being one of the better matches during the night.
