A major WWE Superstar has been on the sidelines due to an injury he sustained during a brutal match on Monday Night RAW. Although former Universal Champion Braun Strowman's in-ring return remains uncertain, the star is scheduled for a noteworthy appearance.

The September 30, 2024 installment of the red brand featured Strowman colliding with Bronson Reed in the Last Monster Standing Match.

Meanwhile, the former WWE Universal Champion is scheduled for a meet-and-greet event in Hummelstown, Pennsylvania on Monday, October 28th. Braun Strowman shared this massive announcement via his Instagram account.

"If you’re in or around #hummelstown #PA Monday the 28th Come say hi, WWE Universe!" he wrote.

Braun Strowman shares injury update amid WWE absence

In a recent interview, the former WWE Universal Champion provided an update on his injury. Strowman revealed his plan ahead of the Crown Jewel Premium Live Event in Saudi Arabia.

Speaking with The Schmo, The Monster Among Men acknowledged the violent nature of professional wrestling and the injuries that come with it. Despite the setback, Braun Strowman stated that he is committed to his career and is undergoing rehabilitation to return to action.

"They call me The Monster of All Monsters of a reason [laughs]. It’s unfortunate, but we know we’re not signing up for water polo or ballet. Things happen in our sport and the show goes on. You have to su*k it up and get ‘er done. I’ve been off the last couple of weeks and rehabbing. I fly back to Orlando to our facility, get some more rehab this week, next week we’re in Hershey, PA and then we head to Saudi Arabia," he said.

The severity of the injury will determine the 41-year-old star's return to the ring, which could range from a few weeks to six months if surgery is necessary to repair the tear.
