In an earlier update reported here at eWn, it was indicated that AJ Styles is in good health following his match with Carmelo Hayes on the most recent episode of WWE SmackDown which ended abruptly. The “injury” incident was not real but was a planned part of the storyline.
WWE has since provided a storyline progress report on the Phenomenal One. This was shared by Jackie Redmond in a tweet that read:
“Post SmackDown last night, I can confirm that AJ Styles suffered a “mid foot ligament sprain”, also referred to as a Lisfranc injury. AJ is scheduled for an MRI later in this week to ascertain the extent of the injury.”
