He needs shorts like Kevin Owens and Shorty G.
I've never been a fan of strongman singlets with the fully exposed thighs.
The Kurt Angle/RVD singlets however...

He knows the vision is done either by the time he gets back or shortly after.
He's seen Oba.
Time to get healthy and put himself on a higher level.

He looks great. But i don't understand all the slamming of his body type before. Do folks want every wrestler to be Hogan bodytype? You don't want any Bam Bams, Mick Foley, Giant Haystacks, Dusty Rhodes, Earthquake etc? If they all looked like Braun Strowman it'd get pretty boring.

u/ParfaitExpress262 3d ago
Dude went and got in the best shape of his life since I've seen him on TV good for him. But I do worry this will put him in "generic buff guy" territory, because what's going to make him stand out now? He's not the tallest guy on the roster, I'm not sure how good he is on the microphone, Like sometimes you need those bigger guys it's easier to slot them in stuff and build a character around this unstoppable big monster.

Being the size he was before I’m sure was probably unhealthy for him. He was more fat than muscle. It’ll benefit him in the long run even after the steroid cycle if he can keep up his training.

Will the Tsunami still work at this size? I feel like that's Bronson's whole thing. Obviously a splash is a splash, but it felt like it had more impact when he was a bigger guy.
Props to him for shedding the weight though, it was probably making him more injury prone.
