ORIGINAL: In a post on X, Andrew Sports Medicine announced that Ivar is working with them to overcome a spinal injury. WWE previously announced that the Viking Raider was out with an injury following an attack by Gallus on Tuesday’s episode of NXT. While it wasn’t been announced that he had surgery, WWE stars usually do so after going to the facility.
Ivar was previously advertised for next week’s episode but WWE noted he will be out of action indefinitely.
Thank you @Ivar_WWE for trusting in Dr. Andrew Cordover and his team to help you achieve #VictoryOverInjury!
