By Bryan Heaton
Braun Strowman vs. Local Talent, 4 on 1 Handicap Match
Result: Braun Strowman defeated Local Talent via pinfall
Rating: 1.5 out of 5 stars
I didn’t realize we time traveled back to the fall. Strowman wants competition again, and all Foley will give him is a bunch of scrubs? THIS WAS THE STORYLINE BEFORE SAMI ZAYN WENT AGAINST STROWMAN. WE FINISHED THAT ONE.
There is NO slowing down @BraunStrowman as he drives through, not one, not two, not three, but FOUR opponents! #RAW pic.twitter.com/eh2pGhTi5u

So, Strowman accepts his reversion, and just mauls these guys. I didn’t catch a single name, but I’m sure they all paled in comparison to “Tripp Bradshaw.”
Honestly, watching Braun annihilate these schlubs was a little uncomfortable. The clubbing forearms to the dude who found Seth Rollins’ hair dye looked like he was getting concussed. The guy in Santino’s tights hardly moved after the first shot of the match. And the guy who ran away should be a member of Mensa.

After the match, Braun looks for Foley, and gets what he wants – a match against Roman Reigns at Fastlane. Well, probably not exactly what he wants, but it’s a start. I’m sure that by the time Fastlane rolls around, we’ll find a way to absolutely hate this match. But it’s exactly what Braun needs – a real match against solid competition. If it ends up being the start to a proper main event run for Braun, I’ll take it. Good stuff.
