Bronson Reed Fined “Massive” Amount For Launching Fan on WWE Raw

History was made on this week’s WWE Raw during the Super Heavyweight clash between “Big” Bronson Reed and Braun Strowman. As soon as Raw General Manager Adam Pearce announced this clash, fans knew they were in for a wild ride. However, nobody could have predicted what unfolded.

During their match, Reed etched his place in WWE highlight reels for years to come when he plucked an unsuspecting fan from the audience and launched him at Strowman:

The surreal moment left viewers stunned and quickly went viral on social media. That’s great for creating buzz, but you can’t just go around throwing people. Attacking an innocent audience member is conduct unbecoming of a WWE Superstar, regardless of the circumstances.

Who Was The Fan?

The WWE fan who got launched by Bronson Reed on Raw has been identified by The Local Competitor ( @LocalCompWWE ) as independent wrestler Nessy Henrdicks.

Nessy Henrix ( @Instntclssic ) appeared as an extra on WWE television earlier this year. On the February 25 episode of WWE Raw , Hendrix was hired by Paul Heyman as one of his security guards. Things did not go well for Mr. Hendrix that night either.

The Punishment

Adam Pearce agrees with this assessment and wasted no time addressing the incident. In a decisive move, Pearce levied a “massive undisclosed fine” on Bronson Reed.Furthermore and notwithstanding, both Reed and Strowman will also have to pay up for the destruction they caused during their match.

Bronson Reed has demonstrated that he can hold is own against Braun Strowman. However, it takes a lot more than in-ring tenacity to become a WWE Champion and headline WrestleMania, as Strowman has. Reed has the size and agility to continue climbing the ranks, but this fan-throwing incident shows that he still needs to improve the often-overlooked mental aspect of this sport.
