Bronson Reed reveals the real reason for his body transformation amid his WWE injury hiatus. Reed missed several months of action due to a torn biceps suffered during his Elimination Chamber qualifying match in February.

The Vision star returned to attack Oba Femi at Sunday Night’s Main Event last month. Femi went on to defeat Reed in a singles match this past Saturday night at WWE Money in the Bank 2026. Speaking with Peter Rosenberg on the Cheap Heat podcast, Bronson Reed explained why he decided to lose a lot of weight while recovering from injury.

“I’ve had serious injuries before, but this was a serious one with my bicep. And I was like, what can I do to sort of stand out when I return? Last time I got injured, I joined The Vision. What can I do this time? And I thought, you know what, I am just going to get into great shape,” he said.

Reed added that a trainer helped him drop fifty pounds during his injury hiatus from the company. You can check out the video in the Instagram post below.

Oba Femi made it known that he was coming after Roman Reigns following his victory over Bronson Reed at WWE Money in the Bank.

WWE RAW star Bronson Reed comments on the benefits of his weight loss

Bronson Reed recently opened up about the benefits of his weight loss journey in regard to performing in the ring.

During an interview with Rock & Pop FM, Reed noted that his body felt much better following the weight loss and suggested that it might prevent him from getting injured moving forward.

“One thing that also helps with transforming your body is that now, with a little less weight, my ligaments, my joints, everything feels better as well,” he continued. “I don’t have as much weight on my body. It’s almost injury prevention at the same time as making yourself faster and stronger for what we’re able to do in the ring,” said Reed.

It will be interesting to see what WWE has planned for the 38-year-old following his loss at Money in the Bank 2026.
