Jeff Hardy Undergoes Successful Surgery
Jeff Hardy went under the knife yesterday and had successful surgery for a torn rotator cuff. Hardy injured his shoulder on RAW a couple of weeks ago, and with how things stand now, he’s expected to be out for 6-9 months. This mean that he will more than likely miss WrestleMania 34 in New Orleans.
But, at least he seems to be in good spirits.
AJ Styles Not Wrestling On SmackDown Live
No doubt fans have noticed that AJ Styles hasn’t been wrestling as much on SmackDown Live lately. While the US Champion has been appearing on the show, mostly in a commentary role, he’s not been having actual matches. It’s being reported that Styles is being kept out of the ring in order to keep fans around for the dark matches after 205 Live.
They did the same with Shinsuke Nakamura when he debuted on the blue brand, so it appears that WWE is using their top blue brand names to keep the fans to stick around to see them…as well as 205 Live every Tuesday.
It would be nice if WWE promoted the Cruiserweight Division properly so fans would want to stay just to see that, and maybe the addition of Enzo Amore to the division will help achieve that.
