Former WWE Champion Braun Strowman Hospitalized Due To An Infection

Former WWE Champion Braun Strowman (real name: Adam Scherr) is in the hospital with what appears to be a serious infection.

Stowman posted on social media yesterday that he spent the night under medical care due to an infection in his knee that he says "came out of nowhere." Earlier today, he provided an update sharing that he remains in hospital while waiting to find out answers, noting that the pain associated from the infection is significant but remaining confident that everything will work out.

"I just wanted to take a second to come on here and say thank you everybody that’s been reaching out and all the well wishes on my post about this infection. I’m going on day two in here, still plumbed up to IVs, waiting on cultures to come back to find out exactly what it is. Pain’s pretty bad, but we’re still breathing. We’re still kicking. God’s got me, and I trust him and everything’s going to be okay. So it’s going to take a little bit to get over this hump, but y’all know me. Nothing keeps ‘The Monster’ down. So, again, thank you for all the well-wishes and thoughts and prayers and everything and everybody reaching out. It doesn’t go unnoticed. I love all of y’all very much. Thank you."
