1) The Original Plans For Braun Strowman At Wrestlemania 36
Braun Strowman defeated Goldberg at Wrestlemania 36 to win the Universal Championship. This match was a late change after Roman Reigns pulled out of the event.
According to journalist Tom Colohue, there were originally some different plans for Braun at Wrestlemania 36.
Colohue says that Braun vs Sheamus was planned at one point for the event. Here is what he said:
Sheamus talked about the IC title a lot because originally there was a plan to have Sheamus vs. Braun Strowman for the IC title at WrestleMania. But that is one of many things that underwent very late changes. Obviously, the title changed, and then Strowman has ended up as the Universal Champion. We could still see that feud but having Strowman feud with The Fiend has sort of suggested that Sheamus won’t be tangling with him soon.
With everything going on now, we may still see Sheamus revisiting the IC title. They need people in that tournament and they don’t have that large a group.
My Take:
- Sheamus vs Braun could still happen for the Universal Title at some point over the next few months. It would be a solid program for the belt.
