In what can only be described as a seismic return to WWE, Braun Strowman, also known as “The Monster Among Men,” made a thunderous comeback on WWE Raw, after a year sidelined by a neck injury. His dramatic entrance shook the foundations of the WWE universe and sent a clear message: he’s back and badder than ever!
Drafted to Raw during the high-stakes second round of the WWE Draft, Strowman’s return was not just a mere reentry; it was a spectacle. Last seen on WWE TV in early May 2023, teased for a promising tag team alliance with Ricochet, his comeback was perfectly timed to disrupt a burgeoning ring drama.
The chaos unfolded as Logan Paul, along with his buddy and streamer IShowSpeed, announced the second-round picks. The situation escalated when Paul, after a fiery promo against Jey Uso, joined forces with Finn Balor and JD McDonagh of The Judgment Day to corner Uso. The trio’s plan, however, spiraled out of control as Paul, flaunting NFL star Patrick Mahomes’ three Super Bowl rings in a bizarre attempt at intimidation, accidentally struck McDonagh instead of Uso.
Amidst the ensuing confusion, Strowman’s music blared through the arena, heralding his grand entrance. With the crowd erupting in cheers, Strowman charged down to the ring, his presence alone scattering his adversaries. He promptly chased Logan Paul from the ring, dished out a bone-crushing chokeslam to Balor, and stood toe-to-toe with Mahomes, who was visibly shocked and protected by his linemen.
Strowman’s return not only saved Jey Uso from a potential beating but also reestablished him as a dominant force within the WWE. As he stared down the NFL celebrity and his protectors, it was clear — WWE Raw just got a whole lot more interesting. Will Strowman’s comeback lead to new rivalries and alliances? Only time will tell, but one thing’s for certain, the WWE landscape has been irrevocably altered with his return.
