One of the newest members of SmackDown roster is the “The Monster Among Men” Braun Strowman who is set for a big match within a week. He is going to face Tyson Fury in a singles match in the co-main event of WWE Crown Jewel 2019 PPV in Saudi Arabia on October 31st.
There’s no doubt that Braun Strowman is heading into the match as an underdog. He is most likely to come up short in this match to the undefeated Tyson Fury.
Thereafter, WWE is going to make up for Strowman’s recent big losses (Strowman also lost to Seth Rollins for the Universal Championship at Clash of Champions) with a big feud on SmackDown.
Roman Reigns talks about dream match against The Rock
We often get to know about WWE’s upcoming storyline plans through live event advertisements. The latest update from WWE booking suggests that SmackDown superstar Braun Strowman will face Shinsuke Nakamura for the Intercontinental Championship at a WWE Super Show Live Event in Mexico City on November 30.
This will be the first official feud for the Monster Among Men after arriving at the blue brand. It is also likely that Braun Strowman will end up winning the IC title by the end of this feud. This will be the monster’s first singles title win in the WWE.
So the earlier thought fresh rivalry between Roman Reigns and Shinsuke Nakamura is not happening, as of now. It will stay as a one-off contest from last week as advertisements show The Big Dog has found a new superstar to feud with. He will be entering a new program with King Corbin on SmackDown in due course.
