Braun Strowman Makes Major Announcement Concerning His Future In Pro Wrestling

For years Braun Strowman had a consistent presence on WWE programming, but last year the company shocked the world when it was announced that the former Universal Champion had been released.

Strowman is now wrestling under his real name, Adam Scherr, and since his release Scherr has appeared at a few different events including the ROH Final Battle pay-per-view. There’s been a lot of speculation regarding where Adam Scherr could end up, but he recently told CBS Sports that he’s not looking to sign a full-time contract with any wrestling promotion.

“I’m not looking for a full-time signing. I’m looking to enjoy some of my time. I love the art of professional wrestling and eight years with WWE was very time-consuming. I was very, very blessed with the opportunities that I had. I got to see the world and all these things. But it’s been nice having these last six months to take a step back and breathe for a second. I forgot about all these little things in life that mean so much. Time flies by and you forget about it. You don’t get a chance to do it. So I’m catching up on spending time with my family and loved ones. Working on my mental health and my physical health. Working on the tolls of eight years of being a WWE superstar.

“Being full-time on TV every week, I’m not going to lie, it’s stressful. It’s nice not having that added stress element every week. Right now, I’m just looking to enjoy my time. Have fun, sell out some buildings, raise some money for some charities, and just go out there and do what I do, and that’s put smiles on people’s faces.”

Some fans are sure to be disappointed by the fact that Adam Scherr doesn’t want to sign a full-time deal and make regular appearances on TV, but it will be interesting to see where he pops up in the future. Stay tuned for updates.
