Bronson Reed didn’t make it home from Crown Jewel.
Fightful Select reports that Reed is still in Saudi Arabia after getting injured at Saturday’s show in Riyadh. WWE staff confirmed he wasn’t on the company’s flight back, and he wasn’t on Monday’s Raw either.
Wade Barrett said on Raw that Reed was still in the hospital following Crown Jewel, which Fightful says is accurate. Internally, the claim was that Reed suffered rib and kidney injuries on the show.
WWE assigned members of its medical team to stay with Reed. The company also has its top international executive in the region on site with him to make sure he gets VIP treatment.
During the World Tag Team Championship match at Crown Jewel, Oba Femi powerbombed Reed off the stage and through a table. The two have been feuding since Reed returned and ruined Femi’s night.
It’s been a tough year for Reed. He tore his bicep on Raw in February and missed WrestleMania.
