The two top brands of the WWE are currently being helmed by two of its most popular stars in the form of Braun Strowman and Drew McIntyre. What’s intriguing about these two performers is that they are both long-term projects of the company.

While the company is known for impulsively pulling the trigger on rising stars, it made an exception for these two performers.

The kind of persistence shown by Vince McMahon in pushing both of them to championship success was proof of the fact that he really thinks of them as big money performers.

When you have that kind of confidence from the boss, you are destined for success.

Now, it seems like both these Champions have realized their brand value. That’s why they took to Twitter, indulging in some fantasy booking themselves.

By the end of it, they were teasing an ultimate Champion vs Champion showdown at WrestleMania! Let’s find out how we got to this point.

Drew McIntyre vs Braun Strowman at WrestleMania?

The whole saga started when Drew McIntyre changed his profile picture on Twitter. However, he didn’t miss the opportunity of taking a sly dig at Braun Strowman.

Notably, McIntyre’s cover photo on Twitter has him claymoring the head off Braun Strowman’s skull.

Strowman didn’t take too kindly to this insult and warned McIntyre that he hadn’t forgotten about it. In fact, he challenged McIntyre to a Champion vs Champion showdown at WrestleMania.

The winner would of course go on to become the undisputed Champion of the WWE. McIntyre certainly liked the idea as indicated by his reaction.

While the prospects of the clash are certainly mouth-watering, the chances are not very good. For one, it’s very difficult that Strowman and McIntyre both retain their titles until WrestleMania.

Both have worthy opponents lined up on their respective brands. With TV ratings taking a nosedive, Vince might change his Champions sooner rather than later.

However, there is one point in the very near future where we might see this collision. I’m talking about Survivor Series. With the recent trend of the pay-per view, it’s become some sort of a tradition to see the top champions from Raw and SmackDown collide.
