- There have been conflicting reports about whether Braun Strowman is already cleared or is not yet cleared but could be cleared at any moment, but according to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Strowman is scheduled to work the Great Balls of Fire PPV on July 9, possibly against the man who put him on the shelf for six weeks, Roman Reigns.

They are supposed to be travelling with the blue team this weekend, including being backstage at Money In The Bank, and will likely make their debut on Tuesday's episode of SmackDown. Reports of them signing with WWE starting swirling immediately after they left TNA Impact Wrestling back in January.
