#3. Hope is true: Braun Strowman's post-WWE destination

Braun Strowman's WWE release was undoubtedly one of the most shocking ones in the last year-and-a-half. It was up there with Bray Wyatt's release, but there doesn't seem to be as much demand for The Monster Among Men to jump ship to AEW.

This has been the common path for many WWE stars who have been released or left, but that may not be the case for Adam Scherr/Braun Strowman. He has been active on social since his release, with his non-compete clause still in effect.

That has now ended and Strowman is a free man again. According to Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Braun Strowman's next destination could be IMPACT Wrestling. Sportskeeda Wrestling's Shiven Sachdeva wrote:

"Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter has stated that Adam Scherr aka Braun Strowman, is currently in talks with Impact Wrestling. While he has not yet signed with them, he is likely to debut at Bound for Glory, which is set to take place on October 23."

We hope this is true because Strowman is the perfect man to lead IMPACT Wrestling in a new direction. There's no doubt that walking in, he will instantly be the biggest star on the roster.

The promotion has other big men, but none of Strowman's caliber. It's the perfect place for him as IMPACT Wrestling has a big fanbase and he is unlikely to get lost in the shuffle as he has a few times before in WWE.
