WWE announced that Jason Jordan underwent successful neck surgery this morning. They said it was a “minimally invasive posterior cervical microdiscectomy” and for now it’s not known how long he will be out of action.
According to WWE medical director Dr. Joseph Maroon, “He had an injury to a disc in his neck which resulted in significant pain that was refractory to all conservative measures. It was decided to do a minimally invasive operation to decompress the nerve, to allow it to heal.”
Jordan has not been able to wrestle for the past few weeks because of the injury. He was written off of TV last night with Kurt Angle telling him to go home and stay home until he was medically cleared.
