This week, Braun Strowman cut a fiery steel cage promo on Shane McMahon. The big man promised to beat seven shades of sh*t out of the 'Boy Wonder' at WrestleMania, then pasted both Elias and Jaxson Ryker in a handicap tag match for good measure.

It, rather unfortunately, echoed Shane's sentiments that Strowman is in fact "stupid". Braun's misfortune was only one of 20 hidden gems you may have slept on during WWE's go home Raw before 'Mania this weekend.

On that note, it seems that WWE would like everyone to boo the crap out of last year's (Performance Center-based) WrestleMania 36.

Don't forget that Dunn and pals control what noise funnels through your speakers. That led to one of Raw's most interesting moments...
