Speaking of Braun Strowman, just how cool was that unique chair spot during the Last Man Standing match with Roman Reigns? Of all the weapons Strowman and Reigns have used, one of those plush office chairs got the biggest reaction. People loved seeing Braun wipe out Roman with the furniture.

Not even Reigns reversing the ambulance into a semi-truck at Great Balls Of Fire got this kind of response from the audience. That speaks to Strowman's connection with people. Fans just adore living vicariously through the monster's actions, especially when he's destroying Roman Reigns.

This was the pop of the night from fans, almost on par with the tease of Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins finally getting 2/3 of The Shield back together. Sooner or later, WWE must realise that Braun is over huge, way more than supposed babyfaces like Reigns.
