The officials were able to create a lot of attractions around the WWE Raw tag team championship match at Wrestlemania 34.
Previously, they were unable to find out an appropriate team against The Bar who is the strongest duo present in the tag division. They have been the title-holders for the maximum part of 2017-18 which is why suitable opponents were needed.
To ensure this, Braun Strowman got inserted into the tag team battle royal that was contested for the number one contender’s spot. He emerged as the winner, but he surely could not take on the tag team champions, solely.
As per the instructions of the WWE Raw general manager, Kurt Angle, he had to find a suitable partner for the title match.

We did not have any clue regarding the surprise appearance, whatsoever before the show.
A big return was expected in this capacity giving the fans a dose of Wrestlemania moment. Numerous names like Samoa Joe, Dean Ambrose, Rey Mysterio, Bobby Lashley and more were expected in this match. But, in reality, nothing much happened.

The match started with a grand entry by Sheamus and Cesaro with sort of floating equipment paying homage to New Orleans hosting Wrestlemania. They continued wondering for the mystery opponent in store in the form of Braun Strowman’s tag team partner. The latter one appeared by throwing away the Bar’s parade from the ramp and announcing that his partner is sitting in the crowd.

He even went into the crowd searching for his partner before the match officially began.
We were completely shocked to see the behemoth picking someone named Nicholas from the Wrestlemania crowd and bring her into the ring to start the match. The match officially started, as Strowman himself took on the Bar, alone keeping Nicholas out of the equation.

It was amazing to see Braun Strowman hitting the running powerslam on Cesaro to pick up the win in quick time at Wrestlemania. So, now, Braun Strowman and Nicholas are the WWE Raw tag team champions!
