Injury Updates: Randy Orton, Alexa Bliss, Nia Jax

Randy Orton

Randy Orton has been working with a sore and stiff neck recently, according to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, but it’s said to not be serious enough to keep him out of action.

Though he hasn’t been on TV lately, he did work a couple of house shows earlier this week, losing to Aleister Black on Sunday and Monday.

Back in 2015, Orton was told that he needed surgery on his neck to clean out bone chips, but he got a second opinion from another doctor who said that he didn’t need the surgery.

Alexa Bliss

As mentioned, Alexa Bliss has been dealing with a bad sinus infection that kept her off of TV last week.

On Instagram, she said that it was “the sickest I think I’ve ever been in my life for almost 2 weeks.”

But it looks like she’ll be good to go for Extreme Rules this Sunday, saying that she got her hair touched up for the show.

Nia Jax

Nia Jax posted a video of herself training recently after undergoing ACL surgery on both knees in late April.

No word on when she’ll be back, but recovery time after ACL surgery is typically between 5-9 months, though her rehab process could be longer since she had the surgery on both knees.
