Braun Strowman was recently let go by WWE
In a decision that left a lot of fans scratching their heads, WWE released Braun Strowman a while ago. He was the Universal Champion recently and no one would have anticipated that The Monster Among Men would be let go any time soon.
Strowman won the belt by defeating WWE Hall of Famer Goldberg at WrestleMania 36 last year. Here's what Strowman thought about his reign as champion:
"You never know what’s going to happen in WWE. That’s one of my favorite things about the job that keeps you on your toes. Opportunity blew the door off the hinges for me at that moment. It was a little more difficult than I think in normal times; [having] no crowd and being under the microscope without being able to hide behind the cheers or the boos and the animation of the audience, I feel like we all had to step our level of performance up. I put my head down and went to work," revealed Strowman.
Strowman has been posting a lot of stuff on his official Instagram handle ever since his WWE release. He is also working on his physique and recently achieved an impressive goal.
Amidst rumors about WWE wanting Braun Strowman back and his willingness to fight the new United States Champion, one wonders if Strowman is on his way back to WWE.
