Despite the fact that Braun Strowman wasn't cleared to compete at TLC, he managed to pin Baron Corbin after Kurt Angle, Finn Balor, Apollo Crews, Chad Gable, Bobby Roode, and Heath Slater kicked the RAW General Manager's ass. That victory means Corbin has been fired but it also means that the Monster Among Men gets a shot at the Universal Championship at the Royal Rumble next month.
Strowman looked to be a guaranteed champion for a time but his Money in the Bank cash-in was a total write-off and Brock Lesnar made short work of him when they finally came to blows at Crown Jewel.
With any luck, their next bout will be more competitive but don't be surprised if Strowman doesn't win because the current rumours are pointing to Seth Rollins squaring off with The Beast for the title at WrestleMania. Plans could change, though, and it hasn't been confirmed that will be a title match.
