There is growing concern surrounding the condition of El Hijo del Vikingo following the health concern he suffered during WWE rehearsals earlier over the past week.
Vikingo had been slated to defend the AAA Latin American Gold against EK Prosper on the June 30 broadcast of WWE NXT. Be that as it may, the clash was canceled after he was hurt during rehearsals. WWE elaborated his absence on television by airing a backstage angle in which Keanu Carver laid out him.
Initial reports indicated that Vikingo suffered a knee health concern, with WWE awaiting MRI results to determine the extent of the damage.
According to Wrestling Observer Radio, the outlook may be more serious than originally hoped. “I heard, by the way, this weekend, it could be serious,” Dave Meltzer stated.
Bryan Alvarez shared a similarly concerning update. “Yeah, it doesn’t sound quality.” Despite the ailment, Vikingo appeared on the July 3 edition of SmackDown. Be that as it may, that match had been taped on June 29 in Atlantic City—before the injury occurred.
During the taped contest, Vikingo challenged Rey Fenix for the AAA Cruiserweight Championship yet came up short in what marked an impressive WWE main collective of talent debut for the 29-year-veteran.
As per reports, Vikingo is under a WWE pact, unlike many of the other wrestlers currently competing for AAA.
