WWE provided an injury update for one of its champions tonight on RAW, and it didn’t sound good.
Tonight on WWE RAW, in a backstage segment, Liv Morgan told Raquel Rodriguez that Dominik Mysterio was going to be sidelined for a while and that The Judgment Day needed her to bring gold to the faction in her triple threat match later in the show.
Later on, Joe Tessitore confirmed the shoulder injury to Dirty Dom while on commentary and revealed that the current Intercontinental Champion is now out indefinitely.
This news is a far cry from what we heard earlier today. When it was reported that the injury was just a scare and WWE would be cautious with Mysterio for now. While it’s entirely possible the line from Tessitore was for storyline purposes, there’s a chance that Mysterio’s injury is worse than we were initially led to believe.
With Mysterio out indefinitely, one has to question if the Intercontinental Championship will need to be vacated in 2026.
Stay tuned to WrestleZone for more information as it becomes available.
