WWE appeared to loosely bring back the 2006 ECW ‘Zombie’ storyline, when the late Tim Arson appeared as a Zombie against The Sandman. WWE used zombies at lumberjacks for Damian Priest vs. The Miz with John Morrison. Graves even mentioned that this was not another ECW reboot fans were tuning into. Priest won, and the zombies ate The Miz after the match. You can view photos below.

Dominik later came in at the end of the match, and won the tag titles with his Dad.
Braun Strowman told TMZ Sports about his WWE title match against Bobby Lashley and Drew McIntyre, “It’s three larger-than-life men about to go to war,” Strowman said. “I mean, there’s nowhere else on Earth you’re gonna see three guys like this square up and beat the ever living hell out of each other. This is King Kong meets Godzilla meets The Incredible Hulk for the battle of the alpha of Monday Night Raw.
Who’s going to be at the top of the food chain? Who’s going to be the guy that represents Monday Night Raw, and I damn sure ain’t planning on coming out of the backside of WrestleMania Backlash not carrying that WWE Championship.”
“With it being a Triple Threat, there’s no rules — you’ve seen in the past, the ‘Monster Among Men’ will pick up anything he can get his hands on and use as a weapon,” Strowman added. “This match is catered and built to me, to the way I like to fight. There’s no rules, there’s no regulations, there’s no nothing. There’s no running, there’s no hiding, you’re gonna get these hands.”
