As first reported by Variety, Adam Scherr, an ex-WWE superstar better known to the fans as Braun Strowman, is set to debut a food format series this fall. The show, titled “Everything On The Menu with Braun Strowman” will see the former world champion travel across America while being on the road for WWE. Strowman would order everything on the menu and then try to hoover it up.

The aforementioned series will be jointly produced by WWE Studios and BrightNorth Studios on the USA Network. Strowman has reacted to the groundbreaking announcement, saying, “See ya this fall!!!!!” The project is nothing short of a windfall for The Monster of All Monsters, who was released by WWE on May 2. It ended the 41-year-old’s topsy-turvy stint with WWE, which was his second with the company.

The North Carolina native even teased his wrestling retirement through a social media post. Having said that, his WWE ouster is believed to have occurred for a number of reasons. Dave Meltzer wrote in his newsletter that the former Wyatt Family member was let go by the company due to his injury-prone nature and the payroll he was on, which was considered high internally.

One source also noted that Strowman was pretty banged-up, even more than people realized. Also, with the number of losses in his most recent WWE run, it was evident that the company didn’t see him as its top big guy anymore. Names like “Big” Bronson Reed, Jacob Fatu, and Jeff Cobb, who debuted at Backlash last weekend, are likely going to be Strowman’s successors.

What injuries had Braun Strowman incurred while wrestling for WWE?

Shortly before he got cut by WWE, Braun Strowman went into the details of his injury-laden career. The Monster Among Men told Miles Addy that he broke his L5-S1 disc before even making his television debut for WWE. It resulted in complete paralysis of his left leg. Strowman was able to recover 85% of the strength but couldn’t ever make a full recovery.

So he basically wrestled his entire career with a 15% paralyzed left leg from his low back. The real-life Adam Scherr has also undergone a couple of elbow surgeries. He also recalled breaking his neck in a Swamp Fight he had with the late Bray Wyatt. In November 2024, Strowman tore his groin minutes into a Last Man Standing match with “Big” Bronson Reed.

That’s what it takes to be a certain Monster of All Monsters, which Strowman was for the majority of his stay in WWE. The former US Strongman’s last major feud was with Jacob Fatu. They engaged in a number of battles since the onset of 2025. While Strowman didn’t go down without a fight, The Samoan Werewolf was clearly a step ahead in every department, be it athleticism, brute force, or possessing cat-like agility.

Did Braun Strowman ever get a receipt for going overboard in WWE?

Braun Strowman‘s segue into a dominant singles competitor in WWE was a natural transition. His early days of annihilation are still, to this day, raved about by the fans. One of his most memorable feuds was against Brock Lesnar. The two men, along with Kane, met in a triple threat match for the now-retired Universal Championship at Royal Rumble 2018.

And at one point, things got ugly between Strowman and Lesnar. The Monster Among Men told Chris Van Vliet in an interview that he accidentally hit The Beast with his knee a bit too hard on the side of his face. Lesnar, obviously, wasn’t elated. It didn’t take long for Strowman to actually live that phrase of what goes around comes around.

The former 10-time world champion punched the big man on the side of his head, which was Lesnar’s receipt for Strowman. The latter laughed it off, saying he could proudly boast of being the only human being to get clocked like that and still go on for another 20 minutes.
