WWE news: How Braun Strowman's career can be ruined - Big Show
Strowman is one of the most popular and dominant WWE superstars thanks to his 6ft 8in, 385lb figure, his ridiculous feats of strength and stunning wrestling moves. The Monster Among Men started out as an intimidating heel (villain) and now wrestles as a babyface (good guy). Since his character change, the ex-RAW Tag Team Champion has been involved in more comedy angles and Big Show fears that this sort of booking could harm the big guy. According to Give Me Sport, The World’s Largest Athlete insists WWE shouldn’t overdo it when it comes to the comedy and entertainment part of Strowman’s character or they could repeat the same mistakes they made with him.

I think with Braun, he [has] got the unique ability to do some things that are entertaining and fun, but let's not overdo it Big Show
When Big Show started out in WWE in 1999 there were many periods when he was booked as a funny character instead of a dominating giant and that harmed his gimmick. The seven-time world champion told Stone Cold Steve Austin on his podcast The Steve Austin Show: "I think with Braun, he [has] got the unique ability to do some things that are entertaining and fun, but let's not overdo it. "That happened a lot with me in WWE in the beginning that because I can do impersonations because I had comedic timing, we would do too much of it and by the time we were done, 'Okay, we've lost The Giant gimmick. Okay, let's turn him heel, he'll kill everybody, and we'll start over again, so now we can start drawing money with him.'
