Braun Strowman Wins Andre The Giant Battle Royal; Colin Jost And Michael Che Last Two Eliminated
Braun Strowman finally got his revenge on Colin Jost & Michael Che, winning the Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal in the process.
The build-up to the 2019 Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal was all about Braun Strowman and “Saturday Night Live” stars Colin Jost and Michael Che. And those were the final three men left standing in the WrestleMania Kickoff show headliner. Jost and Che smartly hid under the ring to start the match, only emerging with three other competitors left. Che & Jost, along with the Hardy Boyz, tried to eliminate Strowman, but The Monster Among Men was having none of it. He dispatched of the Matt & Jeff before turning his attention to the Weekend Update hosts.

Jost tried to reason with Strowman, bringing in his therapist to calm The Monster down. It didn’t work. Strowman laid out the therapist with a chokeslam before once again focusing on Jost. Che wisely tried to eliminate himself but Strowman made sure to send him packing with a parting gift.
The people love Che getting slapped. Hard. pic.twitter.com/XENPO2ofSF

It came down to Strowman vs. Jost. And it ended just how you would expect it to end.
