Shane McMahon’s attempt to peacefully mediate his conflict with Braun Strowman backfired miserably.
McMahon suggested that “The Monster Among Men” should work out his issues with WWE management in a tag team match with the bane of his existence, Adam Pearce. The chairman’s son booked Strowman and Pearce in a RAW Tag Team Championship match against Cedric Alexander and Shelton Benjamin.

Strowman dominated most of the match, and it looked like he was seconds away from earning the win for his team. Instead, McMahon asked him to tag Pearce in the interest of conflict management. Pearce tried to pin Benjamin, but “The Gold Standard” rolled Pearce up for the win.
Infuriated, Strowman yelled at McMahon after the match, leaving fans to wonder whether the chairman’s son will “get these hands” at some point.
To say @BraunStrowman has come out of the gate H O T would be a serious understatement.
