Samir Singh revealed on Instagram that he suffered a torn ACL during the angle on last week’s episode of SmackDown Live. The injury occurred at ringside angle during the Bobby Roode vs. Jinder Mahal US Championship tournament match.

While Sing did not reveal how long he’s expected to be out of action for, it’s believe that it could be six to nine months for the recovery of that injury.

Last week I tore my ACL and it goes without saying that this past week has been very emotional. The more I think about it, the less it makes sense. All I know is that God is the sovereign of my life and that everything that comes to pass is his blessing. I thank you all for the continued love and support. I can’t wait to be back.

While appearing on Booker T’s Heated Conversations podcast, Samoa Joe discussed his recent injury and how long he’s expected to be out of action for.

“Anytime you miss one of the “Big 4” shows or, really, just shows in general it’s always sad to say. A younger version of me would definitely be stressing out and probably making this situation a lot worse. For me right now, I know what I need to do to get back and be healthy. I understand the time table and what I need to do to exceed that time table. I am more accepting of the process because I realize it’s unavoidable. Now it’s just about concentrating just getting back and being healthy.”

He continued, “As of right now it’s kind of a week to week thing. With these injuries sometimes these things can heal earlier and sometimes later. They are going to do a little bit of an ultrasound every week. They’re going to be giving me treatments. It’s not something that requires surgery. It’s basically a lot of time, rest, elevation and letting it heal. It just depends how quickly it’s going to heal. Hopefully it will be sooner than later. Obviously we’re going to be past the Rumble but I don’t know how much further past that.”

Welcome to our coverage of tonight’s Monday Night Raw!

On tonight’s show, Roman Reigns is out for revenge after the return of The Miz and their subsequent attack on him. Reigns was beaten-down badly last week and The Miz made it clear that he is back and wants his Intercontinental Championship. Reigns will no doubt have something to say about this on tonight’s show.

Interestingly, we have three injured Superstars but we’re unsure of just how injured they are and what will happen with them. Paige received an injury at a house-show and now is seemingly banned from ever competing again in a WWE ring. This is incredibly crappy news for Paige but hopefully we get some sort of news tonight, it’s not as though WWE can keep on her on TV as Absolution’s leader and not explain why she isn’t wrestling. Another injured star is Jason Jordan, another partner of Seth Rollins. First Ambrose and now Jordan, it seems the latter may be out of action for a little while and thus he and Rollins might have to forfeit the Tag Titles. The Shield can’t seem to catch a break. And finally, Samoa Joe reportedly received an injury on last week’s show but we haven’t received word on how serious the injury is. Joe looks to be heading to the Royal Rumble and a potential showdown with John Cena, so let’s hope that’s not in jeopardy.

In other, less depressing news, we should get the fallout from Braun Strowman’s latest monstrous attack on Lesnar and Kane. Strowman pulled a huge lighting rig down on top of Kane and Lesnar, which surely writes the Champion off of TV, perhaps even until the Rumble. Will Kurt Angle reprimand the Monster Among Men or will he continue to wreak havoc without any punishment? Hopefully the latter.

All that and lots more on tonight’s Raw. Remember to download the Ringside News app and join in the conversation. Enjoy the show!

As previously reported, Dean Ambrose is out of action with an injury and is expected to miss up to nine months of in-ring action. Since Ambrose’s injury, there have been significant amount of changes to several television storylines and it now looks like one plan the company had in mind could be nixed altogether.

WWE was originally planning a Shield reunion tour at WWE Live Events, which has already been pushed back once after Roman Reigns caught the mumps a couple months back. Ambrose’s recent injury may have now halted those plans altogether now.

The belief is once Ambrose returns from his injury in nine months, Roman Reigns will already be WWE Universal Champion, so it wouldn’t make much sense to do the tour because the idea behind The Shield’s reunion in the first place was to help get Reigns over more before they decided to put the title on him.

Ross welcomes Josh Barnett to the show.

Barnett and Ross will voiceover the NJPW WrestleKingdom 12 event in January and they’re both very exited about the opportunity to do so. Barnett informs that he never watches matches or clips before calling the action because he wants to watch the action for the first time as he’s making the call. Ross agrees entirely and says he does the exact same thing.

Barnett says if he was Conor McGregor he’d definitely fight again. For him, having made the money that McGregor has recently would take the pressure off and he’d just be able to fight for the love of fighting. Perhaps, McGregor has different motivations however, and he mighn’t be interested in fighting unless he’s paid what he feels he’s deserved.

He also wouldn’t be surprised to see Conor McGregor make an appearance in WWE in the near future, but he hopes that McGregor appreciates and respects the business if he’s lucky enough to work for WWE at some point.

Barnett also thinks Ronda Rousey will make a great addition to WWE’s roster and he feels her training in Judo will make for a natural transition to professional wrestling.

Ryback is joined on today’s show by his co-host Phoenix Marie.

Ryback opens today’s show speaking about his thoughts on former WWE talent, Boogeyman. He says that he and Boogeyman were very close and developed a tremendous friendship from their time beginning together in Tough Enough. He adds that Boogeyman was always in tremendous shape and hasn’t aged a bit even to this day.

Ryback informs that Boogeyman actually lied about his age when he started in the wrestling business because he was 40 at the time, but he claimed to be 30. He looked so good that nobody questioned him. He adds that Boogeyman was a tremendous ‘attraction’ for WWE, and he played that role absolutely perfectly.

Ryback comments on Kalisto being struck in the face with a water bottle after his match on RAW last week. He was very disturbed when viewing this footage, and he felt terrible for Kalisto. He points out that after you finish a match you lie on the mat and you’re relieved because your job is done for the night. The last thing you expect is to get hit in the face by something that was thrown by a fan.

He believes that police have the fan in custody and he believes the fan should spend an extended period of time in jail so he/she can think about how stupid their actions were last Monday night. Ryback believes that fans are entitled to cheering and having fun at WWE events, but the minute they jump the barrier or become involved in the action like this they should be susceptible to severe consequences.

Tommaso Ciampa could be making his return to WWE very soon.

An individual on Twitter asked Wrestling Observer’s Dave Meltzer if Ciampa would be able to return in time for the upcoming NXT Takeover event in Philly. While Meltzer doesn’t know an exact date when he will return, he did suggest that Ciampa could be returning “soon.”

Not sure but it feels to me he should be close, he had several different surgeries, was working on a lot of hurt bodyparts. https://t.co/wXcvKacPwo

Ciampa underwent multiple surgeries back in August. Those surgeries included his right ankle, right shoulder, and left shoulder. Tommaso was expected to be out of action for the first couple of months of next year to recover from these surgeries but it now looks like he could be returning earlier than expected.

Ross welcomes Santana Garrett to the show.

Garrett informs that she had a terrific time participating in the Mae Young Classic. Ross mentions that he was very impressed by her in that tournament and he had a great time calling the action in that tournament as well. He showed up to that booking in Orlando prepared to treat it like just another gig, but after speaking to all the women individually and seeing how much passion they all had, he knew he was a part of something important and he became enthralled in the action.

He congratulates Garrett on her rise through the indie ranks as of late, but he warns her to take care of her money because taxes never stop and eventually your wrestling career will. Garrett mentions that she’s taking care of her money and luckily she has another income to fall back on. She studied sleep medicine and works in that field, but she admits that she has focused a lot more of her time on wrestling recently.

Garrett mentions that things have come a long way on the indies in terms of booking possibilities as well as financial payoffs. She recalls working for experience early on in her career and she’d be paid pickles – literally, she was paid a jar of pickles. Nowadays, she’s grateful to be earning more than that and she never takes that for granted.

Ross points out that if anyone is interested in booking Santana you can reach her at santanabookings@gmail.com.

Drew McIntyre’s torn bicep injury is very serious and he will be out of action indefinitely.

Pro Wrestling Sheet reports that McIntyre is expected to be out of action for several months. Recovery time for this sort of injury is around six months but he’s hoping to be back in time for WrestleMania.

Unfortunately I did suffer an injury during my title defense at TakeOver. I’ve dealt with setbacks before. The reality is, I always come back better…There's a scary thought for whomever is NXT champion come 2018… #TickTock
