Kevin Owens talked about his neck injury in more details
while appearing on My Mom’s Basement podcast with Robbie
Fox.
Owens said he thinks the injury happened in January during a
regular match as in December he underwent a full body MRI
where nothing particularly bad came out of it.
“I had a match, and in the match, two things happened that
really jarred my neck,” Owens recounted. “That’s when the
issues started.”
Owens had two matches in January, one against Rey Mysterio
and one against Jimmy Uso. The other two matches were in
February and March exactly a month apart – the ladder match
against Cody Rhodes at the Rumble and the unsanctioned match
against Sami Zayn at Elimination Chamber.
The former champ stopped short of mentioning which match or
which move led to his injury but another MRI this week came
back with the unwanted news and WWE informed him he was not
being cleared for WrestleMania 41.
Owens, who announced yesterday on Smackdown that he’s out
indefinitely and needs to undergo neck surgery, told Fox
that the part that bugs him the most is that he won’t get to
wrestle Randy Orton at WrestleMania.
