After the main event match was over on WWE SmackDown, RAW’s Miz and John Morrison continued to assault the babyfaces after the bell. This allowed Braun Strowman to make a surprise return just before Royal Rumble.

Strowman had been off television since after Survivor Series, and he came out looking like a million dollars. The RAW Superstar cleared the ring and then hit a massive powerslam to Cesaro to end the show.

The Monster Among Men’s return was unexpected, and it was well orchestrated on SmackDown. Strowman hinted at his entrance in Sunday’s Royal Rumble, and his inclusion will definitely make the match more enjoyable to watch.

Strowman had a star-making moment at last year’s WrestleMania where he won the WWE Universal Championship, and he could get a major push at Royal Rumble ahead of this year’s WrestleMania event.

The massive final segment allowed both RAW and SmackDown Superstars to show-off their skills and fans can expect one of these eleven men to win the Rumble match.
