I'm torn because all attempts to replace Braun have been terrible failures (though it kind of felt like Omos was kinda starting to work up until they gave up on him) and the guy can still provide something but he's still a massive douche and dumbass.

The guy had all the tools to be a massive star and they just never seemed to "get" how to book him right consistently. I get that he's a bit of a dink in real life, but I absolutely understand the desire to bring him back I love how H returns and we basically have the Qanon avengers back in the company all they're missing is Wuertz. What’s Braun’s connection to Qanon, as far as his beliefs go? Just the fact he was in CYN?

I don't get it. At all. It's kind of a small horse, I mean what am I missing? Am I crazy?

It's the age old issue of "can the artist/performer be separated from the person". Now to be VERY clear, that line differs on a case by case basis and your mileage may vary

Omos was fine in his team with AJ. As far as singles, Lashley got some surprisingly good matches out of him. He's total asscheeks otherwise.

I don’t think he recaptures his earlier career magic. But as local man/hoss dude, he’ll probably be fine.

Braun seems like a shitty person irl, but it will be cool to have one of Roman’s biggest rivals back.

I hope Braun debuts with a CYN invasion angle to 95% of the audience's confusion

Just the fact he was in CYN? I don't know if he's specifically a Qanon guy or not. But given his beliefs and being both a dumbass and an asshole, I wouldn't be surprised if he was.

Just thought it was a bit much to say about someone unless there are things out there pointing that way. Not to say he’s a great guy or anything but there’s a difference between being a bit of a jerk and peddling damaging conspiracy theories.

His wife is terrible, it’s fair to believe there might be similar beliefs there… but until Erik straight out and outs himself as a POS I’m not going to state it as fact over and over, and I’ll just dunk on him as a boring ass wrestler and not a boring wrestler who’s also an irredeemable person.

Just the fact he was in CYN? Attended a far-right wing biker rally during the height of the pandemic (with Raquel), and was also part of a boat parade with Santana Garrett and Raquel, where you could see various boats with QAnon symbols and stuff stuck on them (along with Anti-Biden and pro-confederacy flags). I also imagine he is going to be rubbing certain people in the locker room the wrong way as well. I know shortly after his release, he went after Iyo Sky for "making Raquel look bad" and tried to trash all of her offense. Also CYN was primarily bankrolled by someone who is very, very, very deep into the Qanon stuff.

If you needed any confirmation about CYN's status, there you go. Seriously tho not looking forward to this return at all, ugh. I'll only accept his return if the train noises come back.

I mean, even if he isn't a card carrying Qanon member, he's definitely adjacent and believes in a lot of the same things they do.

They'll probably rehire his wife too...
