On Monday’s Raw, WWE booked the Last Monster Standing Match that featured Braun Strowman vs. Bronson Reed.
Reed hit Strowman with a superplex that caused the ring to collapse. This allowed Seth Rollins to come out to the ring to make his return to hit Bronson with a stomp on the steel steps. Strowman picked up the win as a result. As previously reported, WWE officials were not happy with the ring collapse spot.
Bryan Alvarez reported on Wrestling Observer Live that Strowman was injured with the belief that it is an apparent torn groin, although the exact injury hasn’t been confirmed.
Alvarez said, “I did get it confirmed. If you watched the Raw show last night, the Last Monster Standing match, which, by the way, was awesome. They went to a commercial break, and they came back…..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. And man, this guy [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. We don’t have an update now. That’s certainly what they thought yesterday [Monday].”
We wish him a speedy recovery.
