4. Slight Possibility of Finn Balor Missing WrestleMania 33
The inaugural WWE Universal Champion Finn Balor underwent shoulder surgery and WWE’s Dr. Jeffrey Dugas noted that the injury is much more severe than previously thought.
Below is what he said:
“Finn’s injury was pretty severe, more severe than normal. A really high energy injury, it did more damage than a standard shoulder dislocation where you simply tear the labrum. The prognosis is excellent, however. We were able to fix it all and put it back where it came from. I’m anticipating him getting back at full speed.”
WWE noted on Raw that Balor’s recovery time would be around 6 months, which would mean that he would return sometime during March 2016. But with his injury being much more severe than expected, he might take a few more months to recover and this might mean that he would miss WrestleMania 33, which takes place on April 2, 2017.
