WWE announced in an article on their official website that WWE RAW superstar Dean Ambrose underwent a 40 minute surgery to repair a torn triceps muscle last night in Birmingham, Alabama.

“[Ambrose] tore some of the distal triceps tendon where it attaches to the forearm bone, called the olecranon. He basically tore about 50 percent of the triceps tendon away from the bone. So yesterday we repaired that back down to the bone where it tore off of. The surgery was very straightforward; we removed all of the extra bursal tissue — all of that extra swollen stuff around his elbow.”

The company announced that Ambrose was in physical therapy this morning, but no timetable was given for when he will return to action. Ambrose has however been removed from advertising on all WWE events over the next several weeks.
