has any other wrestler stepped it up as much as he has. In a year he went from being mediocre at best with a small skill set to a main event wrestler with the skills to back it up.

I trip out how everyone wanted him to get a bigger push a year ago when he wasn't ready for it. Braun today should've retired the Undertaker, but a year ago when everyone wanted it he wasn't that good.
Braun is like a case study in how much somebody can get over when the booking actually helps them instead of the wrestler having to fight through it every step of the way.
the one thing that gets me are the guys who get a big push and refuse to improve themselves at all.

Best first year since Brock or Angle, future Hall of Famer if he doesn't go to Hollywood

>First year
Braun's been on the main roster for two years, dude.
This, and it's not even close. He was "Meh" in 2016. But he is literally having an all-time year.

>Braun vs. Kenny
I feel like this would be a fucking awesome match.

He didn't go solo until after the brand split which was July 2016 and even then he squashed local jobbers until finally squashing regular jobber Sami Zayn in December of 2016

I'm well aware of that but you can't really say "best first year" and compare him to Brock when he spent his entire first year being The Big Dude in The Wyatts.

Was already considered a great talent. Strowman was getting "You can't wrestle" chants.
