Braun Strowman lived the dream at WrestleMania 36 when he defeated Hall of Famer Goldberg to win the Universal Championship. Strowman was lucky to replace an immunocompromised Roman Reigns in the match, and the switch allowed him to win his first major title in the company even though fans had been lobbying for him to become a top guy for some time.

Strowman’s victory was massive, but the celebrations were short-lived as his past came back to haunt him soon after WrestleMania. Bray Wyatt, the former leader of The Wyatt Family, reminded his Black Sheep of their past and how Strowman left the family without notice for a solo career.

Now that Wyatt is in the hunt for the Universal Championship, there’s not much that can help Strowman from keeping the title around his waist. However, the good news for Strowman is that it will be Wyatt himself who will take him on at Money in the Bank and not the demonic 'Fiend' character.

With that in mind, the company must allow Strowman to defeat Wyatt convincingly and retain the title only to meet Wyatt’s alter-ego after the match. This will help the company keep the title on Strowman for a while longer and not have him come across as just a transitional Champion.

The Monster Among Men’s victory will also help him slay Wyatt before meeting The Fiend and getting in a rivalry with him over the belt, possibly giving fans an even better storyline to follow for the next couple of months.
