He could very easily be the new Big Show; flip-flopped from “angry murder machine” to “fun-loving BFG” until nobody cares either way.

As for Braun, I don't entirely agree that folks will just instantly be down on him if he's the new direction. He does tick every box that folks think about when they think of what Vince wants, and I for one am super surprised they rode right past that for as long as they did.

What I *am* leery about, however, is that they would try to change what he is. He is a brutal giant. He's about as "immortal" as Undertaker minus scary music. He just wants competition like he's fucking One Punch Man. The company officially gets behind him, and there is a big chance he will start doing some dancing and wearing lime green attire or some silly hat. He'll start getting made to look like a pussy or a coward when there is no need. There is too much history to not consider that WWE would find a way to derail his momentum... and then blame him for it.
They gave Zack something. Not much, but they gave him something. And then it turned out he wasn't very good. And he hasn't gotten any better. It actually baffles me that they keep him around.

I think this is what happens. In professional wrestling, that sounds a bit insulting, but in "sports entertainment," this can constitute a Hall of Fame career.

Just to drop this here, SCG Radio returns this week to talk all things NXT WarGames and the 2017 Survivor Series. Spitballing about both shows, we discuss everything from the flawed presentation of the main event to the greatness of Styles Vs. Lesnar, issues with Raw Vs. Smackdown, the birth of a star in the Velveteen Dream, the strengths and weaknesses of the revived War Games concept, as well as cover the current lay of the land as WWE looks to embark on their biggest period of the year. A lot of fun, check it out and let me know what you think!
