Injuries have been plaguing WWE lately, with several stars currently sidelined. During a recent Wrestling Observer Radio episode, Dave Meltzer and Bryan Alvarez discussed the recent spate of injuries, including Dakota Kai suffering a concussion, JD McDonagh sustaining broken ribs and a punctured lung, and Apollo Crews dealing with an undisclosed injury.
Alvarez: โWe need to do something here. This is two in a weekโฆ..actually three, because Apollo Crews, I checked on that one. He is also hurt. They donโt have an update yet, but yeah, it was exactly what I talked about last night. He took the back cracker. And I donโt know if itโs his pec or his shoulder or what. Yeah, he was hurt.โ
Meltzer: โHe was grabbing shoulderโฆโ
Alvarez: โSo he was injured in that match. And what it is, we donโt know yet, but thatโs, thatโs now three and in seven days.โ
Crews was last seen competing on last Fridayโs SmackDown, where he secured a win over Johnny Gargano in a singles match. The nature of his injury has not yet been confirmed, though itโs suspected to involve his shoulder or pectoral muscle. WWE has yet to provide an official update.
We wish all injured talent, including Kai, McDonagh, and Crews, a speedy recovery.
