WWE announced on Monday that Kofi Kingston will undergo arthroscopic surgery to remove bone chips from his ankle. Last week on RAW saw the main roster debut of former NXT tag team champions The Revival. Dash and Dawson scored a victory over New Day’s Big E and Xavier Woods in an impressive showing. After the match, the Revival viciously attacked Kingston, focusing on his ankle and leaving him screaming in pain. The attack, which you can see below, is cited as the cause of Kofi’s injury.
Dr. Chris Amann told WWE.com that Kofi “heard a crack” during the attack and was unable to put weight on his leg afterwards.
“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.”
The report at WWE.com states that Kofi Kingston will only be out of action for a few weeks.
