Braun Strowman will be missing action until he’s medically cleared to return to the ring.
Pwinsider Elite reports that Strowman is out of action with a concussion. This comes after his last match on last Friday’s WWE SmackDown, where he and Ricochet defeated The Viking Raiders.
Although Strowman was scheduled to work WWE live events this past weekend by teaming with Ricochet against The Vikings, he was pulled with it being changed to Ricochet winning singles matches over Ivar instead.
The concussion must have happened in the tag team match and now explains why there were some clunky moments in the match, including a spot where Erik and Ivar double-teamed Strowman, but then he fought both opponents off before tagging in Ricochet.
Strowman tried to launch Ricochet at their opponents, but Ricochet came nowhere close to hitting the Raiders. Strowman rolled out of the ring before working for several more minutes. He did perform a few of his signature moves before the match ended.
