Braun Strowman has revealed that he is off WWE television again due to a blood infection, just after returning on the January 29th Smackdown and also appearing in the Royal Rumble match.
Strowman said in an Instagram video, “I got really sick over the weekend and got an infection that got into my blood system and had to be put on antibiotics for that. It was awful, I dropped like 15 pounds in five days. Couldn’t eat. It looks like 50 pounds of water weight, all my joints are swollen and inflamed. The antibiotics are working and I’m feeling better. We’re gonna get back to training and I’ll see you guys very soon.”
Fightful transcribed Strowman’s comments. Ryan Satin tweeted the video and wrote, “Braun Strowman gives an update on why he’s been off TV again.
Says he recently got an infection that went into his bloodstream and it caused him to drop like 15 pounds in 5 days.
Hope he has a quick recovery!” Strowman is currently on Smackdown and his WrestleMania plans remain unclear, as he doesn’t seem to be in the title picture with Roman Reigns vs. Edge reportedly in the works. He would be a fresh challenger for Drew McIntyre’s WWE title on Raw.
