For the better part of last week, WWE Raw roster had a tour to Australia. Almost all the stars from the flagship show joined the tour except for John Cena who shifted his brand using his free agent status for a one-off stint. He had travelled with Smackdown Live roster in China to serve the fanbase, there.
In Cena’s absence, the main event attraction in the tour was none other than Roman Reigns and Braun Strowman. These two had been bitter rivals for the entire part of 2017, so far. They went right after it in the house shows of Australia to showcase what they are capable of inside the squared circle.
In one of the shows of Brisbane, the main event featured a street fight match between these two. As per WWE.com, they tore each other apart during the show in which using weapons were legal. So, they both capitalised on the environment and punished each other.
During this time, an unwanted situation occurred after the monster among men acted as per non-PG TV show. Apparently, he showed the middle finger to The Big Dog to make the situation even more hostile.

During the Queensland house show, Braun Strowman made the early entry. While Reigns was doing his entrance, the heel one did the obscenity to keep things bitter between these two behemoths on Raw. The match kicked off on this not and turned out to be an out-and-out physical brawl between the two.
The end witnessed another chaotic scene with the steel steps being involved. Reigns delivered one spear in which Strowman kicked out. He then went right after his opponent with the stairs but missed. The Guy then delivered a second spear through a table to get a clean pinfall victory over the number one contender for the Universal Championship. So, it’s quite safe to say that Roman Reigns might have got the needed momentum for his No Mercy PPV match.
As per the speculations, Reigns and Strowman might get yet another match on tonight’s main event of Raw. Both, Brock Lesnar and John Cena are not supposed to be present on the show which means these two have to carry the load, yet again.
