It looks like Braun Strowman's desire for a quality opponent will be granted soon, as PW Mania reported that former NXT champion Samoa Joe is scheduled to make his WWE Raw debut soon and his first main roster feud will be against the former Wyatt Family monster.
Since his separation from the Wyatt Family after being drafted into RAW brand, Strowman had been given several squash matches with local competitors. The 7-foot monster easily dominated each of these jobbers and then overwhelmed Sin Cara in their two-week mini feud last September.
Craving for real competition, Strowman has expressed his frustration for not being given a legit opponent who would push him to the next level. Interestingly, the preview for this week's episode of RAW teased about Strowman making yet another demand for a real fight.
Will he get it this time around?
PW Mania reported that Strowman will soon get his first real feud and it will likely be against Samoa Joe, who is ripe for a main roster callup.
Joe, who lost his NXT championship to another hot talent Shinsuke Nakamura at NXT Takeover: Brooklyn, might be the guy Strowman has been looking for. The veteran brawler is penciled to debut this fall after a one-and-half year tenure in NXT, tentatively at Survivor Series on Nov. 20 on Ontario, Canada.
"The former Wyatt Family member has been squashing jobbers left and right over the past 3 months as a member of RAW roster. This could be an intriguing feud if booked right and the opportunity to work with a guy with the experience, skill and talent of Samoa Joe will definitely help Braun."
Samoa Joe, a former Ring of Honor and TNA World champion, will indeed be a blessing for Strowman as his character into an unstoppable monster WWE envisions him to be.
While Joe can easily become a title contender in Smackdown, especially with John Cena and Dean Ambrose reportedly taking some hiatus, taking on Braun on WWE's flagship brand would certainly make wonders for him career-wise.
The moment their feud comes to an end, sky is the limit for both Samoa Joe and Braun Strowman who by then have established themselves as legit contenders for any title on RAW.
