Braun Strowman shares major injury update from WWE HQ
Braun Strowman shared a major injury update amid his hiatus from WWE. The big man suffered an injury during the Last Monster Standing Match against Bronson Reed on the September 30 edition of WWE RAW.
Strowman went down with a torn groin and has not competed since his victory over Bronson Reed last month. Braun Strowman took to his Instagram story to share a video from the gym at WWE Headquarters.

Seth Rollins returned during the Last Monster Standing Match and attacked Reed to cost him the match. Rollins and Reed are scheduled to battle in a singles match at Crown Jewel next weekend.
WWE veteran claims Braun Strowman is held back due to Triple H's perception of him
Former WWE writer Vince Russo recently suggested that Braun Strowman was held back in the company because of how Triple H views him.
Speaking on Sportskeeda Wrestling's Writing with Russo show, the legend noted that Triple H is from the East Coast, and management could view Strowman as a "good old country boy." Russo suggested that despite Strowman's size and athleticism, his perception could be holding him back in the promotion.
"Triple H is an East Coast guy," Russo said. "Vince was an East Coast guy. I'm an East Coast guy. Bro, I gotta tell you, from day one, and I think this has been a big part of the problem, please correct me if I'm wrong, Chris, I know you have no problem doing that. The perception I've always had of Braun Strowman is, yes, bro, he's big, he's bad, he's intimidating, he's a monster, he's whatever they call him. S.O.B. He's one big S.O.B. You know what else he is, bro? He's a good old [country] boy. I'm telling you, bro, that is what it is [why Strowman is held back]." [2:20 – 3:09]

R-Truth hilariously thought a giant tribute to Andre the Giant at WWE Headquarters was Braun Strowman earlier today. It will be interesting to see what the company has planned for Strowman when he returns to action.
