Braun Strowman Shuts Down WWE In-Ring Return Rumors in Latest Update

Braun Strowman has finally responded to fans asking about a potential return to the WWE ring.

Strowman was part of WWE’s roster cuts in May 2025. While many of his peers returned to in-ring competition, “The Monster Among Men” has remained on the sidelines, with his last match taking place on the April 18, 2025, episode of SmackDown.

In a previous interview, Strowman noted that he was semi-retired from professional wrestling as he looked to build his career as an actor. He later reiterated in October that he was taking a break from the ring.

The former WWE Universal Champion recently took to social media to provide an update on his wrestling future, suggesting fans may have to wait a while to see him compete again.

“For everyone asking when I’m getting back in the ring. When a dump truck of gold blocks get dumped on my porch!!!! Otherwise I’ll see ya Jun5th at 10pm for season two of Everything On The Menu!” Strowman posted.

The June 5 premiere date for Everything On The Menu Season 2 could also tie into broader programming changes on USA Network. A recent report from F4WOnline.com’s Dave Meltzer, via Wrestling Observer Radio, noted that SmackDown is expected to revert to a two-hour format, with the timing potentially aligning with Strowman’s show.

A separate report from Bodyslam (via Bodyslam+) suggested the switch could happen within the next few weeks, further supporting the idea that both developments may be connected.

Everything On The Menu, Strowman’s food-focused show, debuted its first season on USA Network last year during a period when he was no longer contracted to WWE.
