Ouch: Top WWE Superstar Out With Injury For Longer Than Expected

Check back later. There are a lot of stars in WWE but only a few of them rise to the top of the company. It means something to see one of them become one of the stars that WWE can depend on, which is why it happens so infrequently. At the same time, it can be a major issue when one of those stars is out of action for more than a little while, and unfortunately that is happening again.

Earlier this month, WWE announced that Drew McIntyre suffered a ruptured ear drum and was put out of action as a result. McIntyre was forced to miss a scheduled Tag Team Title match where he and Sheamus would challenge the Usos. According to PWInsider.com, McIntyre is not medically cleared to return to the ring and is currently not booked for any shows in the next week. There is no word on when McIntyre is expected back in the ring.

McIntyre is a force in WWE. Check out what is missing from the company’s lineups:

Opinion: You never want to see someone injured and McIntyre happens to be one of the most prominent stars WWE has at the moment. He has been one of their workhorses for a long time now and his absence is noteworthy. Hopefully McIntyre is back in the ring sooner than later, as he is someone who can make an impact as soon as he gets back to what he does best at full health.
