WrestleMania 34: Braun Strowman and Nicholas Win Tag Team Titles
It is no coincidence that Braun Strowman chose young Nicholas as his partner at WrestleMania 34, where they were crowned Raw Tag Team Champions after defeating Cesaro and Sheamus.
It was later revealed that Nicholas, at just ten years old, is actually the son of John Cone, a well-known WWE referee who was present in one of Braun Strowman's most memorable matches.
On the March 18, 2017 episode of Monday Night Raw, Braun Strowman faced off against another giant, Big Show, in a spectacular match that will be remembered by fans as both wrestlers broke the ring.
When Big Show climbed the turnbuckle to jump from the third rope, Braun Strowman intercepted him with a brutal superplex that brought down the WWE ring, including referee John Cone.

Although this 'incident' was clearly planned by the WWE, Cone was caught up in the ropes at the moment of impact and was sent flying out of the ring. He ended up falling awkwardly and required medical assistance. Do you remember this memorable match?
