Yesterday, Cena had an surgery to remove bone chips from his right elbow. The surgery was performed by Dr.Andrews. Dr.Andrews removed several pieces of bone cartilage from Cena’s elbow.

The surgeon said about Cena’s injury, “He had begun to lose motion in his arm, and it had been locking up,” Andrews said. “I performed an orthoscopic procedure on his elbow and took out a bunch of spurs. Everything went really well.” Andrews described the procedure as “straight-forward” despite Cena’s “big, old arm.”

Dr. Andrews also explained that, “Cena’s rehab will start on Monday which will include exercises to improve his range of motion and also to get the swelling down,”

Cena is expected to get well in 2 to 3 weeks.
