What happened to Braun Strowman? Reason why he isn't wrestling in WWE now

Braun Strowman hasn't competed in WWE for months. The Monster of all Monsters was last seen in action on the May 1, 2023, episode of Monday Night RAW, when he teamed up with Ricochet to defeat The Alpha Academy (Chad Gable and Otis).

For those wondering why Braun Strowman isn't wrestling in WWE, The Monster Among Men is out of action with an injury. He underwent neck fusion surgery in June and promised to return to in-ring action as soon as he healed up.

"Road to recovery starts now!!!! Level one fusion on my C4/C5 vertebrae was in the great hands of Dr. Cordover at Andrews Sports Medicine was a great experience considering," Strowman wrote posted on his Instagram at the time.

Check out the full post below:

Strowman's tag team partner, Ricochet, has been thriving on his own since losing his partner to the injury bug on WWE RAW. The One and Only had a solid opener against Logan Paul at SummerSlam 2023 in Detroit.

The former world champion's presence is being missed by fans on the company's programming, and it remains to be seen when he will return to action.
