Sure to generate cheers louder than the wail of his own name at the start of his entrance theme, Braun Strowman's Heyman-assisted Money In The Bank cash-in will be amongst the most cathartic in the history of the briefcase.

Paul Heyman needs 'The Monster Among Men' more than Raw behemoth needs an advocate, but Heyman's eyes on Raw were locked firmly on the prize he's about to guide Strowman towards. Fans want to enjoy Heyman as the mouthpiece of a killer, and can now do so with Bruan rather than in reduced appearances alongside his 'Beast'.

It'll be a fitting farewell for Brock, too. This run always required him to put somebody strong over in the end. Roman Reigns will forever remain damaged goods from their time together, but the future star power of Strowman may yet even help him get the elevation Vince McMahon's always wanted for his 'Big Dog'.
