IMPACT Wrestling Bound For Glory 2021: 10 Things That Must Happen
1. Braun Strowman Debuts Via Vignette
Braun Strowman is all but confirmed to be debuting with IMPACT Wrestling. He was spotted holding talks with IMPACT EVP Scott D'Amore last weekend, a meeting that reportedly lasted a good while.
Going by his real name of Adam Scherr, the former WWE Universal Champion has wrestled just once since his shocking WWE release on 2 June, defeating EC3 in a cinematic encounter during the second Free The Narrative event. Until he shows up in a major promotion, he'll be a staple of articles like this.
It would be interesting for IMPACT to tease Braun's arrival with a vignette rather than having his debut be a total surprise, but for him, it's needed. Have the vignette remind everyone of the Braun Strowman circa-2016 and 2017. Back when he was squashing goobers and flipping over ambulances containing Roman Reigns with ease.
For him to flourish in IMPACT, the stench of WWE's rotten creative must be removed from his aura. He can't go from a tedious feud vs. Shane McMahon that involved green goop to being the 'Monster Among Men' without being built back up.
If there's anyone that can achieve a stellar debut vignette, it's IMPACT Wrestling. This will be their biggest get in years.
