Braun Strowman returned to the ring on the December 13th episode of WWE SmackDown.
The Monster Among Men is now officially on the WWE SmackDown roster after previously being a member of WWE RAW. He was able to switch brands due to the transfer window.
Strowman had been absent from television since suffering a groin injury during a Last Monster Standing match against Bronson Reed on the September 30th episode of WWE RAW. He wrestled a dark match on November 15.
Strowman defeated Hayes with a running powerslam on SmackDown, as you can see below:
UH OH! 😳
@Carmelo_WWE will be facing The Monster of All Monsters!

Drew McIntyre made a surprise appearance on WWE SmackDown to attack Jimmy Uso.
The Friday night broadcast started with Jimmy coming out on crutches to discuss his future after WarGames.
Jimmy stated that despite his broken toe, 2025 looks promising with the Royal Rumble and a potential United States Title run.
Jimmy was interrupted by McIntyre, who delivered a Claymore Kick, continuing his assault on those associated with CM Punk and Roman Reigns at Survivor Series: WarGames 2024.
McIntyre continued to assault Jimmy until Nick Aldis and other officials arrived. The Scottish Psychopath exited calmly while Aldis seethed with anger.
