We posted a rumor this weekend about Kofi Kingston potentially being injured. The idea was that the Revival’s attack last week on RAW was WWE’s way to write him off television for a while. It turns out that this is indeed the case as WWE just confirmed the injury to Kofi.
WWE posted a new article on their website, confirming that Kofi suffered an ankle injury that required surgery.
Here is an excerpt from the article:
“During the attack by The Revival, Kofi injured his right ankle and heard a crack, and was unable to put weight on his leg following the attack,” WWE physician Dr. Chris Amann told WWE.com. “Further evaluation and an MRI revealed that the attack had caused fragments of bone to break off the ankle bone (talus), requiring arthroscopic surgery to remove the bone chips from the damaged joint.”

We wish Kofi a speedy recovery! Lucky for the New Day, Big E and Xavier Woods will still be able to continue on competing.
