The ongoing feud over the Universal Championship between Braun Strowman and The Fiend Bray Wyatt has been ongoing for a few months now. It started all the way after WrestleMania 36. After a month’s halt following Money In The Bank 2020, the program took off in mid-June. Now that they’ve been booked in SummerSlam, rumors suggest that it’s going to end, next week.
After facing the two of the Three Faces of Bray Wyatt, Braun Strowman is now all set to finally square off against the dangerous, of them all, The Fiend at the biggest party of the summer. The Universal Championship will be hanging in the balance that gives the challenger a chance to gain back the title that he lost in February to the legendary Goldberg.

It should be noted that Braun Strowman won the Universal Championship at WrestleMania 36 by defeating Goldberg.

Bray Wyatt’s original version then returned to the scene to set up a Swamp Fight at the Extreme Rules PPV. Strowman ended up losing the bout that ended with The Fiend’s return who dragged the Monster Among Men into the Swamp.
Strowman is now out of that lake, perhaps donning a heel personality who accepted the fight against the demonic character at SummerSlam. Fans are ready to see the end of this story with The Fiend reclaiming the belt.
