Dominik Mysterio’s Recovery Process: Nine Months Out after ‘Tommy John Surgery’

Dominik Mysterio, a rising star in the world of WWE, recently faced a setback that will keep him out of the ring for a while. According to Dave Meltzer’s report on F4WOnline.com, Dominik suffered a sudden and unfortunate injury during his match with Andrade on April 15. As a result, he will need to undergo ‘Tommy John surgery’ on his elbow, a procedure commonly associated with MLB pitchers. This surgery typically requires a recovery period of around nine months.

Meltzer shared, “Dominik Mysterio also had an elbow injury, which apparently occurred during a match with Andrade on April 15. It was described as a freak accident. He will be undergoing Tommy John surgery on his elbow, which usually means at least nine months of recovery time.” It’s worth noting that Dominik may have a slightly shorter recovery time since he doesn’t need to throw pitches with the same force as baseball pitchers. Despite the injury, the plan is to keep Dominik involved as a television character while he recuperates. Fans may have noticed him wearing a sling/brace on his arm during this week’s episode of WWE Monday Night Raw, where he was pulled from a scheduled tag-team match.

The current strategy is to incorporate Dominik into storylines on television as he goes through the recovery process following his surgery. Updates on his progress will be provided as they become available.

This unexpected turn of events serves as a reminder of the physical demands and risks that come with being a WWE superstar. While injuries are a part of the sport, the hope is always for a full and speedy recovery for any performer facing time on the sidelines. Dominik’s determination and resilience will surely be on display as he works towards returning to the ring stronger than ever. Stay tuned for more updates on his journey back to in-ring action.
