The Monster Amongst Men, Braun Strowman recently spoke with The Daily Star where he opened up on his frustrations over his WWE Championship chase.

On frustrations over not becoming champion yet:

“There is plenty of time, but yeah it is a little frustrating as it’s been so close so many times,” Strowman said. “Literally had my fingertips on it, but its motivation to keep working harder. The big goal this year is getting back in that WWE Universal Championship picture as I have slid down the mountain a little bit. But I am going to keep clawing tooth and nail to get back as it’s the one thing that’s eluded me. I want it, I am hungry, and the monster’s ready to eat.”

If he is currently injured:

“We are all banged up, but there is a difference between being hurt and being injured,” Strowman said. “I am in the best shape of my life, stronger than I have ever been, faster than I have ever been, and a little lighter than I have ever been. I can go longer than ever, I can go 45 minutes and keep fighting till I am blue in the face and keep going because that’s how bad I want this. It’s inevitable, and you can’t fight the inevitable. Its gonna happen.”

On being himself:

“I am not trying to be anybody, I am trying to be Braun Strowman. “I take bits of advice from everyone that I can,” he said. “That is a big thing in this industry, doing more listening than talking. It gets you a lot further. I am taking the good advice, leaving some of the other advice along the way, and it hasn’t steered me wrong at this point. I am going to keep on going.
