WWE Nixed SNME Plans Due to Bronson Reed’s Injury – Bronson Reed is currently out of action after suffering a broken foot during the main event of WWE Survivor Series: WarGames. The injury occurred when Reed performed a high-risk dive from the top of the cage. He underwent surgery for the injury on Wednesday, which, while more complex than initially anticipated, was ultimately successful. Reed’s recovery timeline is estimated to have him out until May or June 2025.
Reed’s absence has forced WWE to pivot its plans. According to PWInsider, the company originally intended for Reed to face Seth Rollins at this weekend’s WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event in a match that would have concluded their ongoing feud. With Reed sidelined, WWE expedited Drew McIntyre’s return to television. McIntyre, who had been off TV for storyline reasons, is now set to face Sami Zayn at the event.
Bryan Alvarez also commented on Wrestling Observer Radio about the surgery, noting that while it was more complicated than anticipated, it went well, and Reed is now focusing on recovery. This development has reshuffled WWE’s creative plans and underscores the challenges of adapting to sudden injuries in the high-stakes world of professional wrestling.
Reed’s absence leaves a void, as he had been gaining significant momentum on the main roster. Fans will undoubtedly look forward to his eventual return in mid-2025, while the reshuffled matches at Saturday Night’s Main Event aim to maintain excitement despite his temporary departure.
