Below are a couple of top WWE news stories of the day, involving Braun Strowman and Linda McMahon.
• Braun Strowman has been feuding with The Judgment Day on RAW since his return. On this week’s RAW, Strowman faced World Heavyweight Champion Damian Priest and lost. More concerning, Strowman revealed he’s been dealing with knee issues.
In an interview with WWE Deutschland, Strowman shared that his knee has been causing problems, and he has a doctor’s appointment scheduled to assess the issue. He noted feeling off in recent weeks, particularly after a collision with the barricade during his match against Priest.
Here’s what the former Universal Champion said:
“Knee’s a little banged up. I got a doctor’s appointment this week to get it checked out. It’s been bugging me a little bit. If you’ve noticed, I’ve been a little off step these last couple of weeks. There’s been some little tweak going on in there.
When I caught it up on the top of that barricade, I felt something move in my kneecap so I had a bruise on my knee at the end of the match and stuff like that so, not using it as an excuse or anything like that but, it sure as heck didn’t help me not get beat.”

• The McMahon family no longer holds official positions within WWE. Vince McMahon, Linda McMahon, and their children Stephanie and Shane have all stepped away, leaving Triple H, Vince’s son-in-law, as the only family member still involved in WWE.
In January, Janel Grant filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut, alleging physical and emotional abuse, $exual assault, and trafficking at WWE. The lawsuit names WWE, Vince McMahon, and former WWE executive John Laurinaitis as defendants.
Linda McMahon recently provided an update on the family during an interview with Going Ringside at the Republican National Convention. When asked about their well-being following a tumultuous year, she stated, “We’re all doing great”.
She quickly ended the interview after this comment, to most likely avoid more questions about the lawsuit.
