Kalisto hasn’t been seen since before Summerslam where his kickoff show match against Baron Corbin was cancelled after Kalisto wasn’t cleared to compete. For a number of weeks prior, we saw Corbin beat up Kalisto backstage on Smackdown LIVE. It appears like this was a way to write Kalisto off WWE TV as he is dealing with an injury.
According to PWInsider.com, Kalisto was written off TV because he is dealing with some sort of back injury. It is not clear how he was injured or when he will be returning.
Finn Balor recently posted an injury update for fans. He says that he is hopefully under 5 months away from making his return to the WWE and he is hoping he will be back in time for Wrestlemania 33.
Balor also mentions that he is rehabbing 5 days a week in order to get back to the ring faster.

Hopefully his recovery goes as planned and we see him possibly at the Royal Rumble! The pop for him would be electric!
