WWE should not be permitted to get away with this quite so easily.

A miserable example of the trickle-down economics that work about as well for financially destitute countries as they do for a pro wrestling company, Brock Lesnar's gobbling up of Braun Strowman resulted in the 'Monster Among Men' stampeding over both Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins in consecutive weeks, themselves having just conclusively defeated Sheamus and Cesaro.

Net result? Five losers and Lesnar. And he's only really being kept strong for a misguided fourth consecutive WrestleMania Roman Reigns coronation attempt.

Tom Phillips noted following the Rollins dismantling that Braun was 'unstoppable', in flagrant contravention to the useless nine minutes that closed No Mercy just eight days ago. But did Booker T bizarrely clue the audience in as to how he might get his mojo back after all?

Noting how Braun 'don't want no bread and don't want no salad, he only wants meat', the bonkers former WCW Champion could have been referring to a Shield Sandwich. And nobody neutered 'The Big Dog' quite like Braun.
