#3 No Plan For Strowman

Strowman is being wasted.
Strowman is being wasted.

Braun Strowman is one of the best things to happen to WWE in the last few years, but he is not booked in that manner, and it is hard to imagine that two years ago, Strowman was pegged to main event WrestleMania.

The mighty has fallen, as Strowman is not the monster he was just a few years ago, from being an imposing force in the ring to displaying that anti-hero type persona that can only grow organically, Strowman was the top guy in WWE.

But the booking he received from the creative team has destroyed his credibility, and on Raw this week, we saw a prime example of how WWE has no idea what to do with the big man.

The cast of Saturday Night Live had a run with Braun last week on Raw, and things didn't end well for the 'comedians' as Strowman took offence to Colin Jost's question on whether wrestling is real, but the SNL host wanted to make up for upsetting the monster as he sent him a brand new car as an apology.

Strowman in typical 'Strowman fashion' destroyed the car, which meant this could lead to a narrative at WrestleMania. What is going on here? WWE is wasting Strowman at WrestleMania for the third year in a row, it is a shame that Bruan is built up like a tank but is used like a mid-carder.

There are so many ways WWE could fit Strowman into the WrestleMania match card, he could be the man to end Kurt Angle's career, he could be the man to challenge Bobby Lashley for the IC Title, or he could even take on The Undertaker if The Phenom ever returns. WWE is dropping the ball big time here, and it's a shame to watch it happen live.
