Bronson Reed injury update: Could miss WWE WrestleMania 41

Bronson Reed’s injury could keep him out of action through WrestleMania season.

At Survivor Series on November 30, Reed was injured during the men’s WarGames match. He went for a Tsunami off the top of the cage but landed feet-first on the way down. WWE has announced that Reed suffered a broken foot and will be out of action indefinitely.

Dave Meltzer and Bryan Alvarez noted on Wrestling Observer Radio last night that they’ve heard Reed is not expected back in time for WrestleMania 41.

“Bronson Reed is having foot surgery. He’s going to be out for months, yeah, a long time,” Meltzer said. “I was told, after you [Alvarez] had messaged me that, I asked somebody there and they said that he’s not expected to be back for WrestleMania. It’s expected to be a long time.”

WrestleMania 41 is being held at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas on Saturday, April 19 and Sunday, April 20.

Reed was a member of the New Bloodline team at Survivor Series, viewing himself as a mercenary rather than permanently aligning with Solo Sikoa’s group. They lost to Roman Reigns, Jey Uso, Jimmy Uso, Sami Zayn & CM Punk in WarGames. The spot where Reed got hurt was a key story moment in the match. He was attempting to splash Reigns through a table, but Punk moved Reigns out of the way. Punk earned Reigns’ trust by saving him and the two were able to get on the same page.

Despite his injury, Reed tweeted that his spirit remains unbreakable.
