WWE Star Recalls Getting ‘Revenge’ On Braun Strowman At WrestleMania 39

WWE

Telling the hilarious story of stopping Braun Strowman dead in his tracks, one WWE star shared a WrestleMania 39 memory.

Giving a behind the scenes glimpse at the action from the WrestleMania 39 four way tag team showcase match, Street Profits’ star Angelo Dawkins recalled one big moment in particular.

Describing the ‘Heaven splitting’ moment he stopped Braun Strowman in his tracks, Dawkins shared the story from his point of view on the Ringer Wrestling Show.

Dawkins said:

“So, basically, if you remember, Braun (Strowman) came back (to WWE) and his first time back, it was me, Tez, New Day, Los Lotharios and (Chad) Gable and Otis I believe and he cleaned house, all of us. Put me through the announcers table. I went to go get him. He decided to have eyes in the back of his head that day (he laughed) and I was like, I took a mental note. I was like, alright, okay, cool, bet.

“I’ma get this dude back. I don’t know when, but I’ma get him back and when I do, it’s gonna be crazy and the fact that we were in SoFi, I was still kind of hot because that was where the Bengals lost the Super Bowl because of a stinking Aaron Donald sack. So, I was mad, I was so pumped for this match. I was like, yo, I’m about to go in-in this match bro. Whoever’s in my way, I’m hitting ‘em.

“First dude that’s in my way, I’m smacking the crap out him, just to get revenge for Cincinnati. I got the whole city of Cincinnati on my back that night because I was pissed because Aaron Donald got that stupid sack, that 4th down at the end and I was just like, alright, look man, then sure enough, the opportunity presented itself. Braun was running through everybody and I have to give a shoutout to my Viking-Profit brother Erik, you know?

“For realizing. He saw me. He was like, oh, Dawks is right there. He knows from our times during the pandemic, oh, Dawks is gonna come out of nowhere smacking people and I had to revert back to my football days so Braun was just running roughshod.

“He’s feeling himself, he’s feeling good because he’s running through everybody and then boom! Y’all heard the thud. Shook the stadium. An earthquake hit in Los Angeles, an earthquake hit in SoFi Stadium. The ground moved, the heavens split open, the sun was shining down and what happened?

Yes, yes. I proved to the world that monsters can get derailed too by the one and only Angelo Dawkins, okay? Because I had J.I.D., J. Cole, ‘Stick’ in my head as I was hitting Braun Strowman because I brought the hit stick, I brought the pain. I did what I had to do and I got my revenge on Braun Strowman.

“That day, I got my revenge for the Cincinnati Bengals. That day, and I had to remind people that your boy did win a National Championship in football so you know…”

Angelo Dawkins has a big opportunity on tonight’s WWE SmackDown (June 16) as he and Street Profits partner Montez Ford take on several others for a shot at Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens’ Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championships at the upcoming event, Money in the Bank.
