Major WWE Star Undergoes Surgery
A recently injured WWE superstar has undergone surgery.
Bronson Reed shared a photo of himself from a hospital bed on social media, signaling with his hand to indicate that everything went well.
The ‘Auszilla’ also revealed his future intention in the caption, which read, “Surgery done. Tomorrow is DAY ONE. The road back.”
The 37-year-old was injured on the February 23 taping of WWE Raw, where he competed in a 3-way Elimination Chamber qualifying match against Jey Uso and the ‘Original’ El Grande Americano.
Bronson Reed’s injury occurred when he dove on Americano to break a pinfall, awkwardly landing on his right arm. Reed immediately looked at his bicep before rolling out of the ring. As a result, he could not compete any further.
Reports later claimed that he was supposed to win the fight, but the creative team was forced to call an audible, leading to Jey Uso winning.

The Vision Member Qualifies For WWE Elimination Chamber On SmackDown
Bronson Reeds injury led to WWE altering its plans heading into the Elimination Chamber PLE on February 28.
On SmackDown, the recently qualified Jey Uso was taken out backstage at the beginning of the show. The attack meant that he was out of the chamber match on Saturday.
After multiple backstage segments, the blue brand’s general manager, Nick Aldis, announced a last-minute qualifying match between The Vision’s Logan Paul and ‘The Samoan Werewolf’ Jacob Fatu.
Just when it looked like Fatu was all set to win the fight, Undisputed WWE Champion Drew McIntyre made his presence felt by the ringside, hitting Fatu in the head with his title.
Logan Paul pounced on his opponent and rolled him up for a pinfall victory.
