He details the moment the injury occurred, reflecting on hitting a crossbody dive onto his opponent, Psicosis. Janela highlights that the move is one he has “hit a hundred times, without issue.”
“I just came down wrong. Bad. On my left leg. Badly contorted my left knee. It bent into a position that a human’s leg should never bend in.”
“It’s A Long List Of Things…”
The Bad Boy then informed fans that had received his MRI results and that, sadly, “it’s a long list of things.”
“I completely tore and destroyed my PCL. I completely tore and destroyed my MCL. There’s an impaction fracture in the one of the bones in my knee that I don’t know how to pronounce,” he joked, before pressing on, “[…] I have a mild bone contusion in another bone in my knee. A sprain, a fibular collateral ligament. A partial tear of another ligament. Patellofemoral ligament. I have a ACL sprain and a small knee infusion.”
“That’s about 8 things. I’m going to need surgery, it seems like,” he divulged. “I talked to a few specialists, and I’m going to be out for a long while. I’m going to disappear for a bit.”
Joey then promised, “When I come back 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 months from now, I’m going to be better than ever. Thank you.”
