Jinder Mahal Injured?
It’s being reported that WWE World Champion Jinder Mahal is working through a shoulder injury over the past several weeks. He’s been taped up with kinesiology tape during house shows, but WWE doesn’t want him appearing on television that way. Good way to protect the champ, huh?
Also, it’s been revealed that Mahal will be defending his title against Kevin Owens during December’s India tour.
Jeff Hardy Update
As we’ve been reporting over the past weeks, Jeff Hardy has recently undergone two separate surgeries to repair a shoulder injury. Both surgeries were a success, but it’s still believed that Hardy will be out of action until after WrestleMania 34.
Finn Bálor On Bray Wyatt
During a recent podcast appearance, Finn Bálor spoke about his seemingly never-ending feud with Bray Wyatt.
I’m loving it. I’m seeing it as a challenge; it’s something new, it’s something fresh. I’ve been wrestling for almost 18 years now. I’ve done grappler versus striker, striker versus wrestler, high-flyer versus mat technician, I’ve done every style of match that you could possibly think of. And to be put in this situation, with probably one of the most interesting characters of our time, and being given to work with this opportunity in this program and adapt to the situation and learn his character and figure out how he works… it’s been a challenge for me. You can only get better by challenging yourself. I don’t know how fans are reacting to it, I don’t know how critics are reacting to it, but for me, I’m welcoming the challenge and I’m enjoying it.
I think the biggest challenge is getting the opportunity to talk more than I had previously been given the opportunity to do. I’ll be honest, I’m not someone who likes to go out there and talk, I like to have fun, but I kind of have to adapt to this storyline. There’s a lot more talking involved and it’s something I know that as a performer I have to improve on my talking skills… It’s a new challenge. It’s something that keeps me pushing myself and I feel like I’m growing and developing another skill set.
