Bronson Reed addresses his physical transformation for WWE comeback
As seen during WWE Sunday Night’s Main Event, Bronson Reed made his return to WWE television. After the show, WWE published footage of Reed training in the days prior to his comeback. Here is what Reed had to say about his physical transformation…
“By the time I’m back, I’ll probably be around 270, 265, 270 pounds. And at my heaviest, when I came back to WWE at the end of 2022, I was 365 pounds.
So you’re looking at about a 90- to 100-pound difference since then to now. So in the last three, four years, I feel like if you don’t evolve, you die. So especially in this business, you have to keep moving with the times.
And I’m watching wrestling all the time, and I think that puts me in the mood to have a target and a goal of what I want to do. I even think of it as someone’s taking my spot, you know what I mean? So I need to make sure I’m on top of my game.
In this business, people will take your spot straight away, and that’s just how it is. You have to be prepared for that. So that’s sort of the mindset.
Something that I bring to WWE that I don’t think anyone else really does is, like, those big monster movie moments, you know, the chaos that people can’t predict. So I think you’re going to see some, like, crazy stuff when I come back.
I like to be the guy that can bully the other wrestlers. So if you saw me famously take Roman’s shoes, I’m going to start taking more things from people because I can. And not just that, I have The Vision to back me up as well.
So I think a lot of people think I might go the other way, but you’ll see in due time.
So what you just saw was the hard work that I’ve been putting in while I’ve been gone.
I was once told everything you’ve ever wanted is on the other side of discomfort. So I’ve been pushing myself day and night to make sure I’m at my best.
And next time you see me, I’m putting everyone on the roster on notice because when Bronson Reed comes back, it’s on site.”
