10 Things WWE Fans Expected To Have Seen By Now

10. A Rushed Title Reign For Braun Strowman

This one seemed like a given when Braun exploded in popularity over the summer. Fans just loved seeing the musclebound giant beat on Roman Reigns, so much so that he was turned babyface by default. That trend has continued into the winter months (WWE have even got on board with the idea), but Braun still hasn't won a singles title.

At SummerSlam, he cemented his main event status by destroying Brock Lesnar. As Strowman blasted the Universal Champion through table after table, it seemed only a matter of time before creative would rush him into the title hot seat. The fact they haven't comes as a surprise, because it's not like fans would have crapped on the move.

WWE are playing it cool with Braun. That's for the best, though quick pushes for guys like Jinder Mahal and Bray Wyatt into the top title positions earlier this year makes the patience creative are showing with Strowman more startling.
