Page 4 - Best and Worst of Raw - 20th February 2017

#2 Best: Surprisingly good main event

Braun Strowman is surprisingly athletic for his size

We expected this match to be a complete disaster when it was announced. The Mark Henry-Braun Strowman match was certainly nothing to write home about.

This week, Strowman brought his A-Game against the Slim Show, who carried himself well through the entire performance. How often do we hear ‘This is Awesome’ chants for a Big Show match?

This was a symbolic passing of the torch too, and we suppose Strowman will take over the same role that Big Show has played over the years. It’s heartening to see him give it his all in the ring, unlike a certain Mr. Brock Lesnar.

We’re certain that the Roman-Strowman match will be pretty solid too.
