JD McDonagh is thankfully okay following a scary spot on WWE Raw, but he's going to need some time to recover. The Judgement Day member teamed up with Dominik Mysterio to challenge The War Raiders for the WWE World Tag Championships on the 1/27 episode of Raw. During the match, McDonagh did a moonsault to the outside and unintentionally hit the back of his head hard against the commentary table.
To the viewer, McDonagh looked to be unconscious and even on the broadcast Michael Cole noted of the spot, stating that they "seriously" needed someone to check on JD. Both he and Pat McAfee couldn't believe that JD continued the match, crediting him for his toughness despite his heelish ways. War Raiders ultimately retained their championships and McDonagh seemingly collapsed as he made it to the back.
The praise continued for McDonagh by fans and his colleagues online. Names like Ivar and Chad Gable hopped on social media to share their admiration for McDonagh following the match. Hours after Raw, JD took to X himself to thank fans, revealing that he was okay, but that he did sustain some injuries that would keep him out for months.
First off, thanks to everyone for the messages and the concern. I'm good.
"I've got a couple of broken ribs and a punctured lung, so I'm going to be out for a couple months. All things considered, it could have been a lot worse, so I'm grateful for that.
"See ya in a bit.
