So everybody loved Braun Strowman for the last year, thought he desrved to be champ, he wins MITB, probably about to win the title... and MITB isnt about making stars?

Nah I don't think that's what he is saying. Braun is already a clear #1 contender to Brock Lesnar so the idea that he would need to use a contract to be granted a title match is far fetched and lazy booking.

TBH, the whole concept of MITB has kinda ran its course. It's been rinse and repeat for a while, there's nothing more that can be done with it.

Braun didnt need this case and WWE are historically lazy bookers BUT lets consider what we got here. The most physicallh dominant person to wib a MITB pre Braun was Kane and he cashed in same day. Im down to see the fukkery of Braun tryna cash in every show but Lesnars not there so he he has to journey to Minnesota to find Brock himself. :yeshrug:I just know that Braun has been one of the few things about WWE that has stirred my interest so Im willing to see how this plays out

mitb was mever about making stars... RVD won the first one and he was already established....

shelton benjamin (someone who should'v won at least once) was reduced to the holy shyt spot in the match every year....

kofi kingston took over for shelton

name me some stars the created.. Jack swagger was pure garbage.

kane already had a legendary run and was a hall of fame lock when he won..

cena buried the entire roster amd was like an 13 time champ when he won...

I cant even remember all the winners but help me out

@RippTheRuler is right

didn't help swagger
didn't help kennedy who lost it to edge who was already established at that point
didn't help Sandow
should've helped Ziggler, but injured soon after he cashed in
Didn't help Corbin

Kane was already established
Cena was already established
Orton aleady established
Sheamus already established
Ambrose was established through the shield


it helped Rollins, Punk, and Bryan
