Those injuries can build up over time and cause quite a few issues of their own. That is what we are seeing with one of the most prominent stars in the industry today.

This weekend at the Royal Rumble, Cody Rhodes successfully defended his WWE Championship against Kevin Owens in a ladder match. During the post show media event, Jackie Redmond announced that Rhodes was dealing with a variety of injuries, though there were no details given on the severity or nature. Rhodes is still expected to appear as scheduled on this week’s Smackdown.

He’s been working. Check out what Rhodes has been doing:

Opinion: This isn’t the biggest surprise after such a brutal ladder match. At the end of the day, Rhodes is one of the most active stars on the WWE roster and he was out there in an incredibly violent match which is going to take its toll. Thankfully he seems to be getting through it, but I’m not sure how long he is going to have to heal. It comes with being the champ though and there is no way around that.
