Anyone else really enjoy that match? I thought it was a lot of fun.
The only thing it needed imo was a better, more brutal ending. Have Braun toss Sami off the stage or through the announce table or something.
Other than that I loved that match. It was a fun brawl with plenty of plunder and told a good story.

It was really good. Braun powerslamming Sami into oblivion was the right call. Gets him over as a monster he doesn't need weapons or help to destroy you. Going back to the basics will make the little things mean a lot more while the bigger moments stand out. Braun got over killing someone with a Christmas tree. He did fine.

It was good stuff. Zayn was the right guy to do this match with, because he can bump like a motherf***er, but is still credible enough that he could do the hope spots without it looking completely silly. And as such, it made Strowman look good.

I can never not love a good David vs Goliath feud. Probably one of the oldest wrestling tropes that will always work.

I like that Braun is bringing back the Running Powerslam as a finisher

Best part of Raw. I hope Sami beats Braun for the title at SummerSlam or Mania 34.

I like that Braun is bringing back the Running Powerslam as a finisher Bingo. Has anyone used this as a regular finisher since the Bulldog? |

Loved it. I hope it leads to better things for Zayn because he made Braun look like f***ing Doomsday.

It was a fun match. Some of those kendo head shots were brutal as f***. Kind of wish they had more of a flashier finish but it was still solid.

The quality of this feud has been so completely unexpected. It's pretty cool that they actually managed to make something out of Braun.

Braun is starting to show hidden depths as a singles guy. It's quite amazing. Sometimes WWE does find the right guys, and he's home grown too.
