Braun Strowman Reacts to WWE Release

Braun Strowman has broken his silence after being released by WWE—and he did it without a single word. In response to the news of his departure, the former Universal Champion took to social media and posted a photo of himself holding a drink on what appears to be a boat, with the sun setting behind him. The message? Calm, collected, and clearly unbothered.

The timing of the post came just hours after it confirmed Strowman was part of WWE’s latest wave of cost-cutting roster cuts. No caption, no statement—just a quiet cheers to the end of another chapter.

Strowman, real name Adam Scherr, has been here before. He was first released in 2021, only to return in 2022 during Triple H’s regime shift. Known for his monster persona, Strowman had some unforgettable moments during his time in WWE—from flipping ambulances to winning the Universal Title at WrestleMania 36. His larger-than-life presence made him one of the most physically dominant stars on the roster.

This latest release comes despite WWE boasting record profits after WrestleMania 41. As the company continues its cost-cutting moves under the TKO Group umbrella, Strowman’s departure is another reminder that no one is too big to be let go—literally or figuratively.

Was Braun Strowman sending a message by raising a glass after WWE showed him the door? Or is he already toasting whatever’s next? Let us know what you think in the comments.
