Braun Strowman Details How Everything On The Menu Came Into Existence

Former WWE Universal Champion Braun Strowman recently opened up about how his upcoming show, Everything On The Menu with Braun Strowman, came about. The Monster Among Men was released from World Wrestling Entertainment earlier this year.

In a recent appearance on In The Kliq, Strowman was asked how the idea of his upcoming show on USA Network came into existence. The former Universal Champion revealed that the idea was borne out of his desire to put smiles on people’s faces, and he realized that he wanted to keep doing that while he was out with a severe neck injury in 2023.

He detailed how a trip to Kewaskum, Wisconsin, with his agent, Nick, and Kevin, who is the producer of Everything On The Menu, led to the inception of the show.

“So, man, it’s crazy how all this came about. 2023. I was out. I had a really bad neck injury. I’m sitting at home recovering, and I’m going, ‘Well, am I ever going to wrestle again? Am I ever going to be able to lift weights again? What kind of life am I going to have? But I’ve had this realization while I’m sitting out, like, I’m so blessed in life, not only with my physical attributes, but I have something inside of me that God gave me that I’m very good at—putting smiles on people’s faces—and I realized that I want to keep doing that. So, I’m out, and one day I’m on the phone with my agent, Nick, and my good friend, Kevin, who’s the producer of Everything On The Menu.”

Braun Strowman added:

“They were giving me a hard time; we were goofing around about how, when I go out to eat, I normally order two, three, or four entrees. Well, I didn’t get 350 pounds by accident; I like to eat. Two, I’m so blessed with traveling the world with WWE and getting to experience so many walks of life in the culinary space and stuff. Doing all that, I learned how much I love sharing food experiences, taking them out to eat, stepping outside the normal realm of what they eat, and experiencing life. So, we are sitting there talking about all this, and I’m like, ‘Man, I can’t make up my mind what I want to eat. I wish I could order everything on the menu. Wait a second!’

He continued:

“So, we kinda banged our heads together, and we ended up going to Kewaskum, Wisconsin. There’s a restaurant called the Great Outdoor Supper Club. And the main reason we picked it is because there’s a 96-ounce prime rib on the menu. And boy, what a beautiful hunk of beef when I picked it up like a loaf of bread and started taking bites out. It was very primal, but it evidently made the primal episode really good because we sent it out trying to see if anyone wanted to partner to buy and stuff. And I’ve an unbelievable relationship with USA Network, and the powers that be saw and said, ‘Hey, you’re on to something,’ and they gave me an opportunity and a platform, and lo and behold, we got eight episodes of season one.”

Everything On The Menu With Braun Strowman premieres this Friday on USA Network.
