5 storylines for Braun Strowman now that he is out of the Universal title feud

This past Monday on RAW, Vince McMahon penalized Braun Strowman for damaging his Limo by removing him from the Universal Championship match at the Royal Rumble PPV. Later in the night, Finn Balor defeated John Cena, Drew McIntyre and Baron Corbin in a fatal-4 way match to emerge as the new challenger for the Universal title.
On the other side, Braun Strowman was taken out of the arena by some security guards and the Monster did not appear on RAW after that.
Various rumours suggest that the Monster amongst men is still not cleared to return to action and that was the reason why Vince McMahon took him out of that match.
However, Braun Strowman was not the favourite to walk out of Chase Field as the Universal Champion and so, the WWE Creative might be planning a new storyline for the former Wyatt Family member.
Here are the 5 possible directions for Braun Strowman now that he is no longer in the Universal Championship feud:
#1 - Form a tag team and join the RAW tag team division

The RAW tag team championship is the only championship that Braun Strowman has won in the WWE and his first title reign lasted less than 24 hours as the duo of Strowman and Nicholas had to relinquish the tag titles due to the latter's school.
However, WWE can book Braun in a serious storyline involving the tag team titles now that the division is in shambles. Braun Strowman can join hands with Elias or maybe with his former master Bray Wyatt or an underdog like Zack Ryder to form a tag team and save the RAW tag team division.
