In a recent interview with Pro Wrestling Illustrated, WWE RAW superstar Braun Strowman discussed several topics, including how much of a rookie he was during his WWE debut several years ago.

“When I debuted, that was the eighth time I had ever been in front of people. And, like you said, the people criticized me when I first debuted. But what did they expect? It was the eighth time I’d ever wrestled. It was a ‘let’s see what’s going to happen’ thing.

It’s all trial and error. That’s the thing I said about learning in this business. Every time you go out, it’s an opportunity to learn something new. Every time I go out and work I try to figure something else out to make my game better. If my work now compared to where I was doesn’t attest to my work ethic, I don’t know what does.”
