Vince McMahon holds 45-minute meeting with Braun Strowman

One meeting changed things

Braun Strowman has revealed that he was “really frustrated” and “miserable” earlier this year. The Monster Among Men claims that he was unhappy with the WWE Creative putting forth ideas and taking them away from him.

The current RAW Tag-Team champion went on to reveal that he spoke to Vince McMahon about it as well. The WWE Chairman cleared the room despite it being a production meeting and spoke to Strowman to assure him that he is one of the top guys in the company. He said:

I walked into a production meeting one day and I was all but… I’d had enough. I was mad about everything. He [Vince] kicked everybody out of the production meeting two hours before Raw was about to start – the show wasn’t even done – and talked to me for 45 minutes, heart-to-heart, man-to-man conversation, and it opened my eyes to the big picture of, ‘Wow, why am I worrying about this?
