As we previously reported, Raw Superstar Zack Ryder revealed via his social media that he suffered an injury before the show and will, as a result, be out of the Greatest Royal Rumble on Friday. We now have more news on how long he is expected to be out for.

As reported, Ryder faced off against Mike Kanellis in a dark match before Raw this week. During the match, Ryder is believed to have suffered a knee injury.

Ryder mentioned in a tweet that he is flying to Orlando and will miss the Greatest Royal Rumble on Friday to get an MRI. Check out his tweets below:

Update:

In an update to the story, Ryder confirmed today that he has suffered MCL, ACL and calf muscle strains but nothing is completely torn. There will be no surgery needed. Ryder thanked everyone for reaching out and said it is time for Raw to get Zacked. Here is the tweet:

With that said, it appears Ryder will be back in action within the coming weeks. He will still likely miss the Greatest Royal Rumble, but we are sure in the meantime he’ll be preparing to have a massive Raw return.

The video below features his comments as he was moved to Raw during the Superstar Shake-Up:
