Revealed – Why Braun Strowman Backed Away From The Undertaker On Monday Night Raw 1

This week (March 6) on Monday Night Raw, Braun Strowman was booked for the main event segment and he called out Roman Reigns. Instead, the Undertaker came out and Strowman left the ring by avoiding the Undertaker.

Fans criticized the decision of Braun Strowman backing away so that Roman Reigns can build up a feud with the Undertaker.

IWNerd recently reported the actual reason behind this awkward decision. Here is what they wrote;

“The rumored reason floating around why WWE had Strowman back away is that Vince McMahon wanted to tease a future match between the Undertaker and Braun Strowman. The two were rumored to face off at Wrestlemania 33 several months ago. Vince McMahon changed his mind and ultimately made the match between Reigns and the Undertaker instead.

Giving the Undertaker a nod was not Strowman running away from the fight, it was a sign of respect to the Deadman. It was also him acknowledging that their time to fight wasn’t right now but they will see each other again.

If you think about it, it makes sense because why else would WWE have Strowman come to the ring, just to back down to the Undertaker? If they wanted to set-up Reigns and the Undertaker, they could have done without having Strowman involved at all. If there is no eventual payoff for their stare down, it just makes Strowman seem like a chump.”

So, apparently the talks of Undertaker retiring after WrestleMania might not be right. He may still be there for a feud against the ‘Monster Among Men.’

But the biggest question is, how much is the dead man capable of having back to back feuds? We have seen him performing poorly at the Royal Rumble and fans quickly came out to the conclusion that he’ll definitely retire now.

So, we are still not aware of the reality. Keeping in mind IWNerd’s news, we hope to see the best of the Undertaker at WrestleMania and in future.
