Well it makes for good television.
Is he going to immediately become the #1 contender for the universal title?
More back and forth with Roman?

To me it would be dope if he is off of TV and enters somewhere in the middle of the RR after Strowman dominates for a while. He gets in there and they got at it for a few and he eliminates him clean. They could put on a big strong match at WM.

But what's your idea breh :jbhmm: not trying to argue but if our idea is no good please tell us yours.

It absolutely does not make for good tv, IMO.
Strowman hasn't done anything from the minute he came on tv. He's getting built up as the prototypical generic monster heel. You're not going to drag a good match, promo or series out of him. Basically there's nothing to work with there. You don't put Putting Rusev with him would only elevate Braun at best and would most likely completely kill Rusev at worst.

Furthermore, if Rusev gets put in a feud with him, Ru will eventually have to turn face (because WWE) and fall in the same black hole that other good to great wrestlers who turn face do.....Get neutered of what got you over, try to be "funny", be bland and pander for crowd support. Essentially the Cena face treatment that doesn't even work for Cena anymore. For evidence of this, see Cesaro, Rollins, Sheamus, Reigns, Ambrose and any other full time main event face not named Daniel Bryan in the last 5 years.

He needs to continue to rock as a heel and continue do grimy shyt like the chain Accolade (which should have won him the match) to regain some of the momentum he's lost continuously losing to Roman weekly and at the PPV.

He's at the upper midcard now and needs a good feud to push him over the hump as a permanent main eventer. I think he's definitely good enough to be the champ on either show in a few months. Unfortunately there aren't any main event faces (on either show) to feud with. Still doesn't mean he should waste time with Braun :pachaha:

Not really passionate, just explaining my views. It's a wrestling discussion board and he asked for my opinion. I didn't come in here throwing paragraphs around until I was engaged in a discussion. Either skip the read, reply to me, or keep it moving breh, but I wasn't addressing you:manny:
