WWE Injury Report Thread

[R-Troop]

This thread is going to be used to keep everyone informed as to Superstar injuries. When it happens, who is unavailable, and when people can come back.

I plan on keeping the OP updated as people return and people go down.

I wondered why Theory wasn't on TV but waller was . Hopefully when he's free of injury he can turn face and show why the old man was keen on him as he's a great talent.

Ilja is fantastic his matches v Gunther got me watching nxt full time. I'd love for them to go back and feud infront of a live crowd as one of their matches wasn't and it was the best feud of the covid era in wwe.


Apollo crews ? Thought he'd been released. Rizzo is the biggest what if as shes great on the mic but I've not seen her wrestle before .

 

[Tremendez]

This is a phenomenal idea. You're really hitting the ground running, I love it.

Apollo is injured and not just sitting in catering ? Shocker.

Please tell me Vaquer isn't injured? That landing looked bad, and she seemed to limp afterwards.

 

[R-Troop]

So I got some good news and some bad news.

Good News:

• Rey Mysterio is back! The hall of Famer returned a few weeks ago on Raw.
• Gunther is back! He entered the Last Time is Now Tournament, returning on November 17th at Madison Square Garden, with his old Entrance music. None of that Def Rebel Bullshit.

Bad News:
Penta suffered an injury on Raw on Monday. He will be out an undisclosed amount of time.

 

[Crocker]

Alvarez said Penta was a dislocated shoulder
