According to Dave Meltzer on Wrestling Observer Radio (via Wrestling Inc), WWE had been planning to pull Strowman from the match with Lesnar for some time.
Vince McMahon had been planning a match between Lesnar and Strowman since Crown Jewel, where Lesnar beat Strowman in five minutes after Baron Corbin interfered. After the event, McMahon noticed that Strowman was “cooling off” and didn’t want him to lose to Lesnar again. In addition to that, Strowman’s elbow surgery halted his momentum and the build to the match. The plan is currently Lesnar vs. Seth Rollins at Wrestlemania, so Lesnar would have went over Strowman (and presumably will go over Balor) at the Royal Rumble. Instead of having Strowman lose or going with a bad finish, McMahon decided to change Lesnar’s opponent. WWE still advertised Lesnar vs. Strowman to sell tickets, as this year’s Rumble is happening at Chase Field, a baseball stadium. This is similar to when they advertised Alexa Bliss vs. Trish Stratus for Evolution without any intention of holding that match. It was eventually changed to Trish Stratus and Lita vs. Mickie James and Alicia Fox, although Bliss was originally set for Fox’s spot and had to back out due to injury.
McMahon reportedly chose Balor because there weren’t a lot of choices. Lesnar’s matches with AJ Styles and Daniel Bryan have been praised and Lesnar reportedly likes working with opponents with that style. Balor was originally set to face Lesnar at the 2018 Royal Rumble but that was pulled when McMahon didn’t feel he was over enough. Lesnar reportedly wants to work with Balor and wanted to do the match with him last year. Likewise, Balor has said that Lesnar is one of his two dream opponents, along with The Undertaker.
Meanwhile, Strowman is still not cleared to return to the ring, and it’s unknown if he will be by the Royal Rumble.

Its not true dude who posted it just speculated that they might be asking for it soon cause of something he saw on RAW or some shit
Even if they do ask for their release then its WWE fault cause they aint been doing shit w/ em

idk how true any of these reports about releases are
Maria is really vocal about Mike not being used so It could be true
But I also read earlier that the WWE superstars have a "Wait and see" approach. Meaning they trying to see where AEW lands TV wise and how things go when it does actually start up
