Released WWE Superstar Braun Strowman Shuts Down the Rumors of Him Joining Another Promotion

Published 06/11/2021, 12:41 AM EDT

The most common assumption about a released WWE Superstar is that they will immediately contact another promotion for a booking. Unsurprisingly, when WWE released Braun Strowman, everyone assumed he would get in touch with another company to discuss his prospects.

Now, Braun Strowman has opened up about the situation. He clarified that he did not have conversations with any company or promotion about booking him. However, he is open to bookings and anybody who wishes to hire him will need to go via his agent.

Let me just get this FYI out. I have not spoken to anyone about bookings. But if you wanna talk business the email to my agent is in my bio. Thank for any confusion you may be reading online.

Currently, the former WWE Superstar is being managed by 16W Marketing. This is a full-fledged sports marketing agency that represents various sports talents. Strowman’s manager is Nick Antonicelli.

Braun Strowman was in a feud for the title prior to his release

The Monster Among Men was in a storyline with Drew McIntyre and WWE Champion Bobby Lashley for the title. He was a part of a triple threat match against The Scottish Warrior and The Almighty at WrestleMania Backlash. Even though he lost, he impressed the WWE Universe with his skills.

Prior to that, Strowman was in a brief storyline with Shane McMahon. It started when Shane McMahon arrived at WWE and referred to Strowman as dumb. This infuriated The Monster, who was bent on taking revenge. After cutting a couple of promos, WWE booked Strowman vs. McMahon for WrestleMania 37.

Usually, when Shane McMahon is in a feud with someone, WWE puts McMahon over. Hence, in this case, the WWE Universe presumed Shane McMahon would win. However, in the steel cage match, Strowman stole the show with his unmatched strength.

There was a point where he prevented McMahon from leaving the cage by ripping apart the structure from the inside. It was one highlight of WrestleMania 37.

Braun Strowman won the match, and the Universe expected WWE to continue pushing him to the top, where he belonged. Little did the WWE Universe know the company would push him out of WWE.

There is no doubt that Strowman will make moves to continue his growth as a pro-wrestler. Although he has shown no interest in joining any other company, it’s possible AEW has already made contact with him for a potential signing with them.
