WWE posted a video of Thorne being helped backstage after his injury.
It was previously reported by the Wrestling Observer Newsletter that TM-61 had been rumored to be getting a gimmick change and was set for a “big program” with The Revival before the injury took place.
Thorne posted this photo of himself in a knee brace on Twitter.
