Top Star To Miss WWE Draft
It’s been reported that Jimmy Uso will miss the WWE Draft after suffering an injury.
There’s no word on the exact nature of the injury, but it will keep him out of both Draft pools in the coming days. The company is currently dealing with something of an injury crisis with Seth Rollins, CM Punk, and Rhea Ripley all out of action, while both Drew McIntyre and Dominik Mysterio are dealing with injuries.
It’s been that Jacob Fatu’s WWE debut won’t take place during the Draft, despite earlier reports stating his arrival could be imminent.
