One would think being the size of Braun Strowman means apologising to others isn't necessary, but the Raw star reportedly got down on his knees to beg Karen Jarrett for forgiveness during a bar altercation this week. Fraternising with fellow wrestlers (some of them GFW roster members), Braun irked Jarrett by refusing an autograph request for her son.

The Wrestling Observer dished the dirt on this story, claiming that the child in question was actually the son of Kurt Angle (no, it wasn't Jason Jordan). When Karen threatened to tell her ex-husband about what had happened, Braun suddenly had a change of heart and asked her not to. Cue the strangest visual other patrons in the bar are ever likely to see.

Falling to his knees, Strowman pleaded with Jarrett to keep quiet, presumably because he didn't want to upset Kurt. When that didn't work, Braun agreed with Karen that he had been ignorant by refusing the autograph and even cussing at her before apologising profusely.
