WWE Raw acting GM Baron Corbin robbed Braun Strowman off the title shot at Crown Jewel PPV event. The latter one was up against Brock Lesnar competing for the Universal Championship at the mentioned PPV event. Initially, Braun Strowman was the favorite to walk out of the show with the title in his hand. But the Lone Wolf hit him from the back with the title allowing the beast to capitalize. Five straight F-5s earned him a quick win in the match.
Brock Lesnar became the two-time Universal Champion which is a first-time accolade by a WWE superstar. But we could only imagine the rage that Braun Strowman had within him after that. From last week onwards, he was fuming to give a beatdown to Baron Corbin who kept running away. This week’s episode of WWE Raw opened on the same note with The Monster among men hunting down the current authority figure.

He dared to stop a battle royal in progress and beat everyone out. Thereafter he called out Baron Corbin to show up and face him like a man. But Stephanie McMahon was out returning on WWE Raw to remind him about for what’s really important, Survivor Series. She tried to fire him up talking about how Shane McMahon has stolen the world cup at Crown Jewel.
Braun Strowman did not give a damn about this and wanted Baron Corbin. He defined himself as a mindless meat castle as referred by the corporate persons. But if he does not get Baron Corbin then he would not mind going to the WWE Headquarters and destroy it for good. Stephanie McMahon offered him a business proposal. Braun Strowman should lead Team WWE Raw to victory at Survivor Series and he could ask anything in return.
So the behemoth demanded another Universal Championship match against Brock Lesnar. WWE Raw commissioner agreed to it ensuring that Braun Strowman will compete against Brock Lesnar over the title at some point. In addition, Braun Strowman also got to pick the stipulation for this future title match. Plus, he could get his hands on Baron Corbin once Survivor Series gets over.
Stephanie McMahon agreed to all these which indirectly ensured WWE Raw picking up the win in the men’s division tag team match. Braun Strowman was not going to move aside from the Universal Championship picture, anyway. WWE Raw commissioner handing him such opportunities indicates that the monster might pick up the title, sooner.
