Cody Rhodes recently suffered an injury, according to Wrestling Observer Radio.
Dave Meltzer reported that Rhodes suffered the injury while doing some weight training this past week and the story going around within the company was that Rhodes had suffered a torn pectoral muscle, but it’s yet to be confirmed if this was the actual injury.
In regards to Rhodes’ scheduled match against Seth Rollins at tonight’s WWE Hell in a Cell 2022 event, Meltzer reported that WWE officials are currently under the belief that Rhodes will still be able to compete at the event.
Rhodes had been scheduled to compete in a Street Fight match against Rollins at a house show last night in Champaign, Illinois but WWE announced to those in attendance that the match was pulled due to Rhodes’ injury. Rhodes still did a run in following Rollins’ new match on the show against Drew McIntyre.
Meltzer stated:
“Cody hurt himself weight training this week. The story going around backstage last night in Champaign, Illinois is that he tore his pec. I don’t know that 100 percent [if] that is the injury. That’s definitely the story going around. That’s what multiple wrestlers were saying last night, and Cody was there, so he probably told them. The presumption everyone had was he’s working Hell in a Cell tonight and from there we’ll see. But a torn pec is, you know, that’s a pretty serious injury, if it is that.”
