Just a few days ago, news broke that Matt Cardona was forced to cancel dates with independent promoters due to a torn pectoral muscle, necessitating surgery to address the injury.
Earlier today, Cardona underwent surgery, and he took to social media to share the news of its success:
“Surgery done. The road to recovery starts now. Thanks to all who reached out. Thanks to @ImChelseaGreen for being by my side. Thanks to @DarylOsbahrMD for fixing me. You can’t kill me…I’m already dead.”
The former Zack Ryder has enjoyed considerable success on the independent circuit since his departure from WWE four years ago.
In the past month alone, he made a surprise appearance on AEW Collision, challenging Adam Copeland to a TNT championship match, while also engaging in an angle in the TNA Knockouts division.
Here’s to hoping for a smooth recovery for Cardona, with expectations of seeing the Indy God and Deathmatch King return, stronger than ever, by the end of the year.
