Strowman quietly turned heel on RAW after he assaulted, Adam Pearce, but he's currently penciled in to challenge for the WWE Championship and feud with Drew McIntyre.

According to Dave Meltzer of WON, there is still some doubt about Strowman challenging for the WWE title, and there were also stories going around about an injury for "The Monster Among Men," so it's possible that he won't be in the marquee match at WWE TLC:

''There was a story going around that Strowman was said to have been injured in the Survivor Series and they did a suspension angle on Raw to write him off, but he was not on the internal injury list and many believe McIntyre vs. Strowman was still set even though the company did follow up Raw with an announcement of a suspension for him attacking Adam Pearce.''

We hope this isn't true because he would be a perfect opponent to challenge McIntyre and further legitimize the champion's reign.
