Braun Strowman sought medical treatment following his performance on Friday’s WWE SmackDown. The Monster Among Men shared a humorous selfie on his Instagram story today revealing he was undergoing infrared therapy after his intense tag team match.

Strowman teamed with Damian Priest to face The Bloodline’s Solo Sikoa and Jacob Fatu in the main event of SmackDown. The match reached a turning point when Fatu attempted to Superkick Priest but accidentally connected with Sikoa instead. Capitalizing on the miscommunication, Strowman expelled Fatu from the ring, allowing Priest to execute his South of Heaven Chokeslam finisher on Sikoa for the victory.

The physical toll of the contest apparently necessitated recovery treatment for Strowman, who documented his infrared therapy session with fans through social media.

This match followed another significant encounter earlier this month where Priest defeated both Strowman and Fatu in a Triple Threat qualifying match for the Men’s Elimination Chamber. Priest will now compete this Saturday at the premium live event, where the winner earns a championship opportunity against Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania 41 in April.

The victory for Strowman and Priest continues to build momentum for both competitors as WWE approaches its most significant events of the year, while The Bloodline suffers another setback in their quest for dominance on the blue brand.
