Braun Strowman Talks Brock Lesnar Punching Him For Real At Royal Rumble

The Monster Among Men has laid down a path of destruction in his wake since emerging as part of the Wyatt Family. But it was after Braun Strowman was drafted to Raw, shaved off the sides of his head, and started screaming like a gladiator when he really started to gain momentum.

Braun Strowman recently spoke to the Daily Star where they covered a few interesting topics while Strowman prepares for whatever WWE has in store for him. One thing’s for sure, Braun is ready for anything.

But one thing he might not have been prepared for was having his head practically rocked off his shoulders after he accidentally kneed Brock Lesnar in the head at the Royal Rumble. The Beast Incarnate popped up and gave him a nasty receipt when he tattooed Strowman with a wicked punch to the head in return.

“Any time Brock and I are in the ring it’s very physical,” Strowman said explaining the brutality. “You’re talking about two larger-than-life human beings who are fighting for dominance. Stuff happens. It’s a contact sport – it’s not tennis. We’re not going out there to slap a ball around, we’re going out there to beat each other up. That’s what we did.”

Braun Strowman is currently a part of the WWE Mixed Match Challenge in Team Little Big with Alexa Bliss. I guess they thought it would be hilarious to see Braun and Bliss next to each other… and it is.

But Strowman had nothing but awesome things to say about his pint-sized partner when he explained how it was a refreshing change of pace to work with the Five Feet Of Fury.

“To be able to wind down a little bit when my body was beat up, I was fighting a little bit of a cold, was a very entertaining and refreshing segment to go out and work with. I got to show another layer of Braun Strowman the character, to show that he has a little bit of a softer side. It might be that he’s sweet on Alexa Bliss.”
