Braun Strowman

Braun Strowman Appears To Suffer Injury On RAW

The Number One Match Braun Strowman Wants At WWE WrestleMania 41The Last Monster Standing match lived up to it’s name on this week’s episode of Raw.

Seth Rollins made his shock WWE return wiping out Bronson Reed on the steel steps to set Braun Strowman up for the win.

But despite this is is Strowman who appears to have come out in worst condition as the former WWE Champion is reportedly injured.

Bryan Alvarez has stated on Wrestling Observer Live that Strowman has suffered an injury, and there is a belief within WWE that he has a torn groin.

“I did get it confirmed – if you watched the Raw show last night, the Last Monster Standing match.

They went to a commercial break, and they came back, and Braun Strowman got hit by Bronson Reed with a Samoan Drop.

Braun Strowman grabbed his thigh/groin area, and then they were gonna do a spot where he knocked Bronson Reed off the apron through some chairs. (Strowman) starts running, and I knew immediately, this guy’s hurt.

He normally can’t run all that fast, but he couldn’t even walk the ropes – he was limping the ropes. He knocks (Reed) off the apron and there was a long period where he just kind of laid there in the corner and the ref’s furiously communicating with the back. He may have torn his groin is what it’s looking like. That’s certainly what they thought yesterday!” [h/t EWrestlingNews]

Roman Reigns

A New Report Provides A Slight Update On Roman Reigns’ Plans For The 2025 Royal Rumble

Early Roman Reigns WWE Royal Rumble PlansWWE has teased Roman Reigns’ involvement in the 2025 Royal Rumble with his appearance on the event’s promotional poster, fueling speculation about his return to the Rumble match for the first time since 2020.

According to WrestleVotes via SportsKeeda, Reigns is expected to compete in the match, rather than a singles bout, with strong chances of him being a key player until the end.

With Reigns’ ongoing Bloodline storyline, fans are left wondering if this could set up another showdown with Cody Rhodes.

“It’s hard to say that’s what the indication is for. The signs clearly are there just by the design of the poster that he is working the event. It seems to be from just the short questions that I asked and I got back, he’s probably more likely to be in the Rumble for the first time in a while as opposed to a singles stand-alone match.

So if he is in the Rumble, there’s a great shot that he is going to be staying in there at the end. Does that roll into Cody Rhodes again? That’s a totally different question and a snowball answer.

I can just say Roman’s on the Rumble poster, likely to be in the Rumble match, you can draw your own conclusions.”
