WWE: Roman Reigns out of action for at least 4-6 weeks

Roman Reigns out for atleast 4-6 weeks

The following information was given on the WWE Network:

Scott Stanford informed viewers on the WWE Network in a "breaking news" update that Roman Reigns' surgery was a success and Reigns is currently in recovery. Stanford noted Reigns will remain overnight in the hospital in Nashville, TN and has been pulled from Sunday's Night of Champions pay-per-view event.

Dr. Christopher Amann said that it wasn’t something that happened while wrestling, but Reigns was dealing with it for some time. This morning Reigns woke with bad abdominal pain that was getting worse, so he reached out to the WWE medical staff. Reigns was told to go to the hospital where he was informed he had an incarcerated hernia, which means a loop of intestine had wrapped around it.

Reigns will be out of the ring at least 4-6 weeks but could possibly as long as 3 months. Amann said that Reign's physical fitness won't help him in recovering from a hernia operation. He said the main thing is letting the tissue and muscle heal completely before he's allowed to do anything physical work. He said they won't let Reigns return until he's completely cleared.
