The WWE star says he is not finished despite the injury
Summary
– Matt Cardona revealed he suffered a torn triceps during a match Friday night
– The injury appears to have happened during his WWE Main Event match with Kit Wilson
– Cardona has not announced whether surgery will be required
Matt Cardona is dealing with a torn triceps following his latest WWE match, but he has already made it clear that the injury will not end his comeback.
Cardona revealed the injury on August 23, sharing a photo of his severely swollen arm. He joked about how muscular the swelling made his arm look before explaining that he tore his triceps during a match Friday night.
Although Cardona did not specifically identify the match, he competed against Kit Wilson during the WWE Main Event taping on August 21. That timing makes the Wilson bout the apparent match Cardona was referencing when discussing the injury.
The clarification also separates the injury from Cardona’s August 14 SmackDown match against GUNTHER. Cardona took several powerbombs during that bout before submitting and was checked by medical officials afterward. Still, his latest comments point to the following Friday as when the triceps injury occurred.
Cardona has not revealed the severity of the tear, whether surgery will be necessary, or how long he could be sidelined. Despite the significant swelling, he said he still went to the gym and trained his legs after suffering the injury.
There is currently no timetable for Cardona’s return, but he emphasized that he is not finished. His next steps will depend on the full extent of the injury and what treatment is required.
