Heat on Braun Strowman after tweets
Added 2022-11-10 22:28:35 +0000 UTCThe heat on Braun Strowman is very real.
Braun Strowman gained criticism from several of his colleagues after WWE Crown Jewel when he targeted "grocery baggers" and "flippy wrestlers," with numerous talent speaking out. Those that we spoke with said that Strowman has actually been on his best behavior backstage since returning to WWE, and had been easy to deal with, but "social media Braun" has been another story. WWE management is aware of it and at least one that we spoke to thought that it was an immature approach by Strowman.
It was reiterated to us that it's not a part of an ongoing or upcoming angle, and likely won't be turned into one. However, it was suggested to us that Strowman could eventually be ribbed or referenced on screen or on commentary for his stance. One wrestler who claims "they'll never do a flip in their life," said that the tweets shouldn't have happened, saying "we need them, and they need us. Wrestling is everything. There's very little truly right and wrong. He didn't come up in the business doing the things that a lot of those people did, so he probably doesn't understand."

You’re right, I don’t see big Doc Gallows doing a flip off anything anytime soon 😂

2022-11-11 17:08:58 +0000 UTCMan was getting praised for having good big man match that the crowd was really into and he just had to show his ass the day after. Dude has highly disrespectful to his fellow wrestlers for doing a different style than him.
2022-11-11 14:16:13 +0000 UTCI always seen his post as more of a diss towards Meltzer than anything but maybe that’s just me. Either way good to hear he has no actual heat backstage yet

2022-11-11 01:02:38 +0000 UTCI’ll never respect him for his hot take on wrestlers losing their jobs during covid. He also never apologizes he just tries to claim it was a joke or seeks grace that he doesn’t offer others

2022-11-10 23:49:29 +0000 UTCWhat makes it sad/worse is that he backtracked and said he was joking with the IWC and that he has "mad respect" for his brothers and sisters in the locker room. Such bullcrap. Dude learned nothing from being out of WWE and trying and failing to co-run his short-lived indie promotion.
