In the WWE locker room, where strength is a common attribute, not many are brave enough to publicly declare their readiness to challenge Braun Strowman. However, one powerhouse is stepping forward.
Otis, known as the Blue Collar Brawler, stands out as one of the most robust wrestlers in WWE, boasting a sturdy frame at 5-foot-10 and 330 pounds.
As the muscle of the Alpha Academy, Otis has showcased his versatility in the ring, taking on opponents of various styles, from high-flyers to towering giants.
In a recent interview with WrestleZone’s Bill Pritchard, Otis discussed the previously suggested “Big Meaty Men Invitational” proposed by Big E.
Expressing his interest in participating, Otis named Braun Strowman, Bronson Reed, Ivar, and Omos as potential contenders for such a unique match.
“I tell you what, one of the guys I wanna work with… I’ve worked with Braun Strowman obviously before, I wanna get in the ring with him again. But we’ve got Ivar, we’ve got Bronson Reed… also me, Omos… you put all the meat in one ring, that ring’s gonna be shaking, baby,” Otis declared.
Otis’ specific call-out of Strowman is intriguing, given their history as former tag team partners and opponents.
While they have teamed up and faced each other multiple times, their lone singles encounter occurred on September 23, 2022, during SmackDown, where Strowman secured the victory in a near-six-minute match.
Braun Strowman, on the other hand, has been on hiatus since May 2023 due to level-one fusion surgery on his C4 and C5 vertebrae.
Despite the recovery, Strowman has been actively updating fans on his progress through social media, showcasing his strength and issuing a warning to the WWE roster.
As anticipation builds for Strowman’s return, fans are eager to witness potential singles action for the Monster Among Men, especially considering his recent success in teaming with Ricochet.
With both Otis and Strowman eyeing each other, the possibility of a main-event feud between these formidable competitors adds an exciting element to the WWE landscape.
The question remains: When will Strowman make his return, and how will the WWE Universe react to the clash between these two powerhouses?
