Former WWE Universal Champion Braun Strowman, sidelined since May, shared a glimpse of his weight loss journey on social media. Despite undergoing successful neck fusion surgery, he remains absent from the ring. Strowman surprised fans by revealing a significant 25-pound weight drop, now at 360 pounds compared to his billed 385 pounds.
As WrestleMania approaches, key WWE stars like Charlotte Flair and CM Punk face setbacks. Flair’s absence is due to a significant injury suffered in December, while Punk recovers from a torn triceps sustained during January’s Men’s Royal Rumble. However, Punk will make a special appearance as a guest commentator during a championship match between Seth Rollins and Drew McIntyre.
In a recent interview, Strowman expressed admiration for fellow WWE star Chad Gable, hoping to see him achieve championship success in the future. Gable’s recent loss in a Six-man Gauntlet match prevented him from challenging Intercontinental Champion Gunther. Strowman praised Gable’s skills, labeling him as someone with the potential for a world championship, highlighting his charisma, in-ring abilities, and overall character.
Strowman’s injury interrupted his popular tag team partnership with Ricochet, leaving the possibility of a reunion open for speculation on WWE programming. The wrestling community eagerly anticipates whether this unexpected duo will grace the WWE stage together again. As Strowman continues his recovery and weight loss journey, fans remain intrigued by his future in-ring prospects and potential collaborations.
