Honestly? He's right

Why do people say Braun was wasted potential, he always sucked.

I don't know why they kept him around so long. He was good for becoming a giant threat and putting over some main eventers, but after that he didn't really work.

He got over quickly because Vince gave him the territories monster booking, but then he started speaking and opened an Instagram account where he talked about his emotions.

Braun's peak was him going after Roman and yelling I'M NOT FINISHED WITH YOU but when he had to do longer promos he was awful and it destroyed his monster image

Real answer is that they buried Braun with one F5 when Roman would go on to take 6 at mania

nah hes wrong. i dont know what people expect these really massive guys to do. obviously because of their size they are limited in what they can do. braun weighs over 300lbs that is a lot for your knees to carry gotta be careful with jumping around in the ring just look at what happened to sid and kevin nash

Braun was at his best when he was screaming and killing Roman Reigns
Once that stopped, nobody cared
More so when the dumbass did a dancing gimmick

Dutch has worked in and booked in countless territories and seen hundreds of wrestlers. If he says some guy will never draw a dime he's probably right

That's cool and all but that doesn't make his word gospel. The fans were behind braun thats all that really matters. He was the only guy at the time along with like 2 other part timers that posed a genuine threat to Roman.

Guys like Bruan live and die by their booking. They have to be used sporadically and at the right time, otherwise they become another big guy that you know will never ultimately win. Braun had a specific issue of being a massive whiny bitch who preached the usual BE A MAN bullshit and then cry to himself backstage which is hardly an endearing trait.

They get rid of him whenever they don't have plans for him and rehire him later. Like Ricochete. Which made their tag team very funny ro me.

I won't say he never had anything, he was a solid heel monster for a good 2 years. He just couldn't stay healthy after that.
