Dominik Mysterio’s recent injury has sidelined him from WWE action, with the wrestler last seen wearing a cast on the latest episode of RAW. While details about the injury were initially scarce, recent reports from Wrestling Observer Newsletter shed light on the situation.
According to WON, Mysterio sustained an ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) injury in his left elbow, often caused by repetitive overhead movement. While rumors circulated about the possibility of him undergoing Tommy Johns surgery, Mysterio himself took to social media to refute them, stating, “No surgery for this guy…”
The recovery period for such injuries varies, and while Mysterio’s situation may not require surgery, fans can anticipate his return to WWE television and, possibly, the ring in the near future. This news comes as a relief for both WWE and The Judgment Day faction, of which Mysterio is a part.
However, with Mysterio temporarily out of action, the storyline trajectory for The Judgment Day becomes uncertain. The absence of both Mysterio and Rhea Ripley could potentially impact the faction’s direction, leaving fans curious about its future.
Meanwhile, Mysterio’s backstage interaction with Liv Morgan on a recent RAW episode has sparked intrigue among fans. Although no words were exchanged, the encounter hints at potential storylines involving the two wrestlers.

Morgan’s “Revenge Tour” storyline, aimed at dismantling Ripley, might now extend to Mysterio, given her role in Ripley’s injury and subsequent title forfeiture.
The dynamic between Mysterio and Morgan presents an engaging narrative thread for RAW viewers, with possibilities ranging from conflict to collaboration. As the WWE Universe eagerly awaits further developments, all eyes will be on RAW to witness how this storyline unfolds.
