Dominik Mysterio Set To Undergo Surgery – WWE star Dominik Mysterio is facing a significant period of time on the sidelines.
During Monday’s WWE Raw, Dominik was seen with his arm in a sling, prompting speculation about the severity of his injury. Originally scheduled to team up with JD McDonagh against Andrade & Ricochet, Dominik was replaced by Santos Escobar in the match, which ultimately ended in victory for the babyfaces.
According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter by Dave Meltzer, Dominik is slated to undergo a surgery typically associated with baseball pitchers—Tommy John surgery. This procedure is aimed at repairing the ulnar collateral ligament in the elbow.
While the specific details surrounding the injury remain undisclosed, it is speculated to have occurred during a match with Andrade on April 15th, described as a freak accident. Despite his injury, WWE plans to keep Dominik on television during his recovery period.
Meltzer wrote, “He will be undergoing Tommy John surgery on his elbow which for a baseball pitcher means at least nine months out. Since he doesn’t have to throw pitches hard, his recovery time would probably be a little shorter. As of right now, the plan would be to keep him as a television character while recovering. He was off the European tour and had his arm in a sling at Raw.”
