In a recent interview with The Spark in the Dark podcast, WWE NXT superstar Kona Reeves provided an update on his injury status.

“I got surgery on March 14th, I had 5 anchors put inside of there. I was taking a clothesline over the top rope and as I was coming down, my shoulder hit the apron pretty hart and popped out. This shoulder hasn’t been 100% for the longest time.

When I was just starting with wrestling, I don’t know what I tore, I think it was my labrum, I tore a small part of my labrum in my back, but I never got surgery as they said that if I did physical therapy over the years, it would get stronger, but it would never fully heal. I never got surgery, it felt fine and I wrestled five and a half years on it.

It was the best time to have surgery done, but I wish that I didn’t have it, because I feel like I would flourish right now in how they are filling RAW, SmackDown and NXT. I feel like my entertainment would flourish in this environment.”
