Add another believer to Team Strowman. The build of Braun Strowman’s character has been a hot button issue ever since WrestleMania 34.
Why wasn’t Stroman in a bigger angle heading into WrestleMania? Isn’t Strowman the most over guy on roster? Is he being booked in too many comedy spots?
Despite what some may view as a Strowman holding pattern, veteran of the industry Jim Ross does not see it that way. On his the latest episode of The Jim Ross Report podcast, the longtime WWE announcer says he believes the WWE still views The Monster Among Men as one of their top guys.
Ross would even go on to say that Strowman could be “the guy” for the WWE as soon as 2019.
“I like the continued advancement of Braun Strowman. He’s not being force fed to me.I think he’s going to be the next big thing in 2019. I wouldn’t do it before then. I don’t think he’s quite ready for it. But man you can see him getting better and better every week. Braun Strowman in my opinion the future lead mule in the WWE.”
If not Braun Strowman, then who will carry the torch for the WWE heading into the next decade and beyond?
