WWE Reveals Shoulder Injury To Johnny Gargano On 1/9 WWE Raw
WWE provides an update on Johnny Wrestling.
Johnny Gargano hasn’t competed since December 30, 2022, and WWE has now revealed why. In a short announcement on the January 9 edition of WWE Raw, commentators Corey Graves and Kevin Patrick revealed that Johnny Gargano is currently suffering from a Grade 2 AC sprain. It was not made clear when the injury was sustained.
Gargano quickly commented on his injury in a Tweet:
I injured my shoulder at a live event in Toronto (ironic?), and the medical team is going to protect me from myself for a bit.. but you better believe I’m going to do EVERYTHING I can to get back in that ring so I can be that guy you all know I can be. Just let me in that Rumble!
