Braun Strowman has been on the sidelines to start off 2025 due to an illness but is on the rebound. Strowman had been dealing with a serious illness that left him recovering in a hotel room and losing 36 pounds in a week.
He described it as a very bad flu. Strowman was slated to work a six-man tag team match on the January 3rd episode of WWE SmackDown before being pulled.
As seen below, the SmackDown star took to Instagram to note that not only is he planning to be in the Royal Rumble, he is back training in the gym.
“I don’t think it’s gonna be to 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.”
