WWE Digital has confirmed that Edge suffered a torn triceps as a result of injuries sustained during The Greatest Wrestling Match Ever. Edge has undergone successful surgery and is currently rehabbing at home.
The Rated-R Superstar faced Randy Orton in a gruelling test of in-ring skills at WWE Backlash. Both competitors were pushed to the brink, but The Viper prevailed over his former friend in the highly intense match.
WWE confirmed what many fans noticed yesterday night, how red Edge’s right arm was at the end of the match. As we reported in our Backlash review, Edge was supposedly injured during his legendary match against Randy Orton, a match that was taped last Sunday at WWE Performance Center.
It is said Edge suffered the tear in his right arm while doing re-takes for the taped match. WWE’s announcement reveals that Edge has already undergone successful surgery and is back at home rehabbing. He is expected to be out of action for around eight months.
#TheViper @RandyOrton is ending this match the same way he started it.
