Braun Strowman Returns to Training After Severe Illness – Braun Strowman is looking to bounce back in a big way after a tough start to 2025. The WWE SmackDown star revealed that he had been sidelined by a serious illness, which left him bedridden in a hotel room and caused him to lose 36 pounds in just one week. Strowman described the ordeal as “a very bad flu.”
Originally scheduled to compete in a six-man tag match on the January 3 episode of SmackDown, Strowman was pulled from the show due to his condition. However, the “Monster Among Monsters” is already on the road to recovery and has resumed training.
Taking to Instagram, Strowman shared an encouraging update about his health and hinted at his plans for the upcoming Royal Rumble. In his post, he expressed confidence about tossing competitors over the top rope, writing:
“I don’t think it’s gonna be to[o] much of a problem to toss anyone out of the #RoyalRumble just gotta politic my way into it like the ones that already have!!!! MonstersAreReal #OneBigSob #BraunStrowman #GottaPlayTheGame #wwe #WonOneAlready #MostElimations #34Elimations.”
Strowman’s determination to return for the Royal Rumble signals an exciting possibility for fans. With a history of dominating the iconic match—including setting a record for 34 eliminations in the Greatest Royal Rumble—his presence could significantly impact this year’s event.
As the Royal Rumble approaches, Strowman’s recovery and potential entry into the match add another layer of unpredictability to the road to WrestleMania. Fans will be watching closely to see if the powerhouse makes his highly anticipated return in time to reclaim his place in WWE’s biggest battle.
