Vince Russo believes WWE RAW star is held back due to Triple H's perception of him
Former WWE writer Vince Russo recently suggested Braun Strowman was being held back on RAW because of how he is viewed by Triple H backstage.
Speaking on Sportskeeda Wrestling's Writing with Russo show, Russo noted that The Game is from the East Coast, and that could impact his perception of Braun Strowman. The legend suggested that Strowman may be held back on RAW because he is seen as a "country boy."
The former Universal Champion will be facing Bronson Reed in a "Last Monster Standing" match next Monday night on WWE RAW.
"Triple H is an East Coast guy," Russo said. "Vince was an East Coast guy. I'm an East Coast guy. Bro, I gotta tell you, from day one, and I think this has been a big part of the problem, please correct me if I'm wrong, Chris, I know you have no problem doing that. The perception I've always had of Braun Strowman is, yes, bro, he's big, he's bad, he's intimidating, he's a monster, he's whatever they call him. S.O.B. He's One Big S.O.B. You know what else he is, bro? He's a good old [country] boy. I'm telling you, bro, that is what it is [why Strowman is held back]." [2:20 – 3:09]
