Last April, Braun Strowman made his WWE return after undergoing neck fusion surgery in June 2023. Strowman last competed on the July 15th episode of Monday Night RAW, where he lost to World Heavyweight Champion Damian Priest.
In an interview with WWE Die Woche, Braun Strowman stated that his knee is banged up and will undergo a medical evaluation this week.
“Knee is a little banged up. I have a doctor’s appointment this week to get it checked out. If you’ve noticed, it’s been bugging me a little. I’ve been a little off-step the last couple of weeks. There’s been a little tweak going in there. When I caught it on the top of the barricade, I felt something move in my kneecap. I had a bruise on my knee at the end of the match. Not using it as an excuse, but it sure as heck didn’t help me not get beat.”
