A two-time WWE RAW Tag Team Champion has no plans to get back in the ring anytime soon. Braun Strowman recently cleared the air on retirement speculation.
The Monster Among Men has been inactive in the ring since being let go by WWE in May this year. The 42-year-old wrestler has since shifted his focus to outside projects, including his new food/travel series called "Everything on the Menu with Braun Strowman."
Speaking on Going Ringside, Strowman was asked whether he has retired from in-ring competition. The Mountain of a Man revealed that he has taken some time off from wrestling, putting rumors about his potential WWE return to rest once and for all.
"I’m taking a break right now. These (hands) are always ready if anybody wants them, but right now, I’m enjoying taking a little break, getting my body healed back up as to normal as I can, and experiencing some other things that life had to experience. I loved my time with WWE, but it took up every bit of my time. Now I’m having some opportunities to get out and do some other stuff, see some other things.”

He further added that he has been enjoying his time away from wrestling, which has allowed him to focus on other new ventures.
"I’ve made some ventures, I have a tequila brand now, Quintaliza, we’re working on that, so just living life and having fun."
