IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: For The Gold: World Heavyweight Title Match Set For Next Week’s Monday Night Raw

This week on Monday Night Raw, WWE announced that Ilja Dragunov has suffered a torn ACL and will be out of action for 6-9 months. The injury took place during a match against Gunther during a live event in Columbus, Georgia on Saturday night, with some clips of the match being shown on the broadcast. Dragunov will be out of action until spring or summer of next year.

He’s quite talented. Check out what dragunov can do when he is healthy:

Opinion: There is nothing good about something like this and hopefully Dragunov is back in the ring a lot sooner rather than later. A torn ACL is one of the more devastating injuries that a wrestler can sustain and now there is nothing to do but wait. What matters the most is getting Dragunov back to full health, as it could take a long time before he gets back tow hat he was before the injury.
