There were rumors floating around over the past few days that Braun Strowman has some backstage heat with WWE management. These rumors suggested that this heat was the reason why WWE didn’t put the Universal Championship on Braun at the WWE Crown Jewel event.
We are here to help kill these rumors.
Mike Johnson of PWInsider (who the rumors were originally attributed to), says that there is no truth behind the rumors that Braun has heat with WWE management right now.
On his audio show, Johnson mentioned some issues that Strowman has had in previous years. This was done to explain why WWE may have backed off Strowman’s push in the past. This turned into a rumor that suggested Braun’s backstage heat was the reason WWE put the Universal Championship back on Brock Lesnar.
Johnson cleared things up by saying there is no truth that Braun has any heat with Vince McMahon. There is no truth about Strowman being in any sort of trouble with the company.
There were also no backstage issues that led to WWE putting the belt on Lesnar over Strowman.
Hopefully, that clears things up.
