#4 Adam Pearce found himself in a match alongside Braun Strowman on WWE RAW

Last week on WWE RAW, Braun Strowman tried to get into the WWE Championship picture. Strowman competed against Bobby Lashley in hopes of making the WWE Championship match this week a Triple Threat Match.

However, Strowman was unable to defeat The All Mighty who has been on a golden run as of late. This week on WWE RAW, The Monster Among Men called out Adam Pearce and Shane McMahon for cheating him out of opportunities.

Shane decided to have some fun on WWE RAW and told Strowman that he’d team up with Pearce to compete for the RAW Tag Team Championships. Cedric Alexander and Shelton Benjamin came out for the match and Strowman decided that he’d face the two men on his own without tagging in Pearce.

While Strowman went shoulder first into the steel post outside the ring after missing Alexander, he recovered enough to plant Benjamin with a Powerslam.

However, Shane commanded Strowman to tag in Pearce, and this gave Shelton time to recover and pin Pearce to pick up the victory. While the match wasn’t anything special, it seems like RAW creatives are building towards a rivalry between Shane and Strowman for WrestleMania 37.

Shane hasn’t competed since October 2019, but he’s someone who loves to take big bumps. Strowman could have a match at WrestleMania if the RAW creatives continue to build this further.
