Braun Strowman revealed that his ring name was inspired by two baseball players on the 10,000 Nos podcast.
“They’re talking about Ryan Braun, and I’m like, ‘Braun, Braun, I’m kind of brawny,’ and then literally they transition right after that and they start talking about Marcus Stroman, the baseball player,” Strowman said.
Strowman, whose real name is Adam Scherr, debuted in WWE as a member of The Wyatt Family before breaking out as a singles star. He left WWE in 2025 to focus on reality television.
