WWE Rumor Roundup: Big return, Former Universal Champion to join AEW? Reigns' future, Goldberg retirement speculation (15th June)

#4 Former WWE Superstar Braun Strowman heading to AEW?

Former WWE Universal Champion Braun Strowman might be heading to AEW once he is able to compete for other promotions in August. Strowman was released by the company a few weeks back and has to serve a 90-day no-compete clause before he can sign with a new company.

Former WWE world champion and current AEW employee Mark Henry spoke to TMZ about Braun Strowman. He revealed that there is interest on both sides in working together:

"[He's] super high on my list. It's not all a Mark Henry decision but there is already interest on both sides so hopefully by the time he's allowed to wrestle, in August- I think the middle of August then we can have a serious conversation about contractual things of that nature, but right now there's interest on both sides,'' said Henry.

Unlike most of the other superstars who were released along with Strowman, he has never competed outside of WWE. It will be interesting to see if The Monster Among Men will be able to make a name for himself outside the umbrella of WWE.
