Today, Braun Strowman uploaded an image of Wrestlemania 36, where he won the Universal Goldberg Championship in minutes. He added a message on X/Twitter and swore to win the Knight United States championship when they face London.

The Knight comments on its rivalry with The Bloodline at WWE Smackdown
In 2023, the Knight entered a rivalry with The Bloodline and pursued Roman Reigns in the hope of winning the undisputed universal championship of WWE. However, it always fell short due to the numerical advantage of the faction in the fighting of the tribal chief.
In an interview in SHAK Wrestlinghe asked megastar about his rivalry with the Samoana faction and how he hit his career. The two -time United States champion said he took him to new heights and, at the same time, delayed it a little for a while.
“I think he did a little of all that. I think he took me in several different directions. I think that optically, in a way, he raised me, and I believe… also, optically, in a way, he delayed me a little, to the point that I had to rebuild me a little, there for winter and spring last year. So I think that is due to the way everything was configured and how it was done. But, ultimate A good outcome, so that was pretty good. ” (From 03:14 to 03:44)
It will be interesting to see if Knight can get to WWE Wrestlemania 41 in Las Vegas as the United States champion.
