“I did get injured last night. Stuff happens. It’s live television. It’s wrestling. It’s an occupational hazard. I ended up in the emergency room and I have a broken orbital bone.

It looks amazing, all things considered. It feels awful but looks pretty amazing. I have no idea what that means for me. You know, usually you guys have seen me like play into every single injury, but like this feels different. Obviously this feels very different.

It feels frustrating. I’m upset. I feel like if I didn’t have bad luck I’ve had I’d have no luck at all. I just need to take a little bit more time to like process and to kind of heal from obviously like the head trauma that is going on right now. Then we’ll see what happens.

We’re just gonna take it day by day. So world domination continues. We’ve just had a minor blip.”

According to the American Academy of Ophthalmology’s EyeWiki, patients with orbital fractures should avoid contact sports for 6–8 weeks. This is assuming it is an uncomplicated fracture and the patient does not require surgery.
