Adam Scherr, fka Braun Strowman, has discussed Vince McMahon’s reaction to seeing him perform as one of Adam Rose’ Rosebuds.
Before he was known as Braun Strowman, Scherr accompanied former WWE talent Adam Rose to the ring in 2014, partying with a variety of extras called ‘Rosebuds’.
Speaking on Highspots Wrestling Network’s ‘Virtual Gimmick Table’ show, Scherr noted that Vince McMahon himself questioned why Scherr was doing the Rosebud gimmick.
Discussing the WWE Chairman’s reaction, Scherr said:
“I was a Rosebud. That’s what got me seen. Vince (McMahon) himself saw me doing the Rosebud gimmick, he goes, ‘Why is this guy doing this?’”
Opening up about future projects away from the ring, Scherr said:
“It’s kind of cool to have the opportunity just to do stuff. I was very fortunate in my time with WWE but it was very, very time consuming.
“I didn’t have a lot of time to do other things so now during my downtime when I’m trying to figure out what I wanna do when I grow up, I get an opportunity to go out and, you know, explore different avenues, try different things and I’m enjoying it. I definitely miss being in the squared circle though. I promise you that.”
Scherr’s last WWE match was against Bobby Lashley and Drew McIntyre for the WWE Championship at WrestleMania Backlash in May.
