WWE provided the following injury updates stemming from the Survivor Series WarGames event.
-Bronson Reed suffered a broken foot. He will undergo surgery next week and is out indefinitely.
-Jimmy Uso is out indefinitely with a broken toe.
-Tonga Loa underwent surgery to repair a torn bicep.
Powell’s POV: The injury updates were provided by the broadcast team at the beginning of Friday’s Smackdown. The Reed and Uso injuries occurred during dives from the top of the WarGames cage. I don’t mean to be Captain Hindsight, but how about eliminating the cage dives by putting a roof on the WarGames cage? Here’s wishing all three wrestlers the best in their recovery.
Two avoidable injuries for AEW highspots no one will remember in a week. I’m surprised the women’s match didn’t have as many injuries, especially with a garbage can falling 15 feet towards people’s heads.
Jumping off the top rope would have accomplished the same table break moment, while minimizing risk.
