Rumors are that Braun Strowman has been cleared to return after undergoing minor elbow surgery last month and he will likely be part of the Great Balls of Fire PPV on July 9, according to Dave Meltzer.
Before Strowman was injured, he was set to have one more match against Roman Reigns at Extreme Rules, which likely would have been an “ambulance match” or some other gimmick match, so Roman Reigns would be Strowman’s most likely opponent at Great Balls of Fire.
As of last week, the plan is still for Strowman to face Brock Lesnar at SummerSlam, but plans could change if the Samoa Joe / Lesnar feud continues to be received well and WWE decides to extend it.
