“Big Dudes Need to Remember..”: The Internet Broke When Braun Strowman Made a Failed Attempt to Ace a Cruiserweight Move

Braun Strowman, the ‘big guy’ of the WWE who is known for his immense strength, has once again grabbed the attention of fans. However, this time, this isn’t about destroying his opponent or destroying the ring itself.

This time, it is all about attempting a cruiserweight move that embarrassed him in front of his fans.

Recently, a video of Braun Strowman has been roaming on the internet. The video is from a WWE event. In the video, Strowman is trying to do the kick-up move, but he botched. Even though he acted professionally and quickly did the next move instead of being embarrassed, but it didn’t slip from fans’ eyes. 

Fans came online and started to share their opinion on this botch. While some fans were appreciating his attempt, others were wondering why heavyweights try the cruiserweights’ moves. Some fans were even blaming WWE for changing Strowman’s gimmick as WWE Universe loved the old one.

These fans are wondering why the heavyweights even try cruiserweight moves.

Kick-up is an acrobatic move that wrestlers commonly use. It is referred to as a cruiserweight move because it majorly requires agility for execution. And cruiserweights’ less weight act as an advantage in execution.

This isn’t the first time that a wrestler has botched the move. Even the ‘Tribal Chief’ Roman Reigns once tripped while trying a cruiserweight move.

The time when Roman Reigns tripped while executing a move

In 2013, ‘The Shield’ was scheduled for a match in WWE’s live event in Dublin, Ireland. During the entrance, Roman Reigns tried to enter the ring by jumping off the ropes but slipped and fell. The move was quite unusual as Reigns is a ‘Big Guy’ in the WWE. And the same happened now, with Strowman.

Braun Strowman got popular during his singles run in WWE in 2016. He was known among fans for heavy lifting and destroying opponents with his strength. But when he returned to WWE with the new gimmick in 2022, fans didn’t seem to like it that much.
