Dominik Mysterio’s wrestling journey has hit a snag as he transforms into a compelling heel character, but recent injury concerns have forced him to take a step back and reevaluate his plans.

During a recent episode of Raw, a scheduled tag team match featuring Dominik Mysterio and JD McDonagh against Andrade and Ricochet was disrupted when Dominik appeared at ringside wearing a sling on his arm, signaling an injury.

Additionally, Dominik had to withdraw from the match, prompting changes to the match lineup.

No Surgery Required

Initial reports suggested that Dominik might require Tommy John surgery to address his injury. However, in a reassuring update, Dominik himself confirmed that surgery would not be necessary, providing relief to worried fans.

In a recent edition of Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer provided insight into Dominik’s condition, revealing that the young wrestler has opted for physical therapy instead of surgery as part of his recovery plan.

“He’s going through physical therapy. He said no to surgery, and I checked with WWE today, and they said, ‘Yeah, he’s going to do physical therapy. He’s not going to have surgery, but that was the original word on Tuesday was that [he’s getting surgery]. That’s the deal.”

While the exact timeline for Dominik’s return remains uncertain, he is prioritizing his rehabilitation efforts. Fans eagerly await his comeback to the ring, although it may take some time before he is fully ready to resume action.

The news that Dominik Mysterio won’t require surgery comes as a relief to many, indicating a potentially faster recovery process. As he focuses on his physical therapy regimen, fans remain hopeful for his swift and successful return to in-ring competition.
