Logan Paul says torn triceps is ‘least inconvenient injury possible’
Though his torn triceps will have him on the shelf for a while, Logan Paul hasn’t been too inconvenienced in day-to-day life.
Paul gave an update on the injury during his Impaulsive podcast this week, saying that — because he’s right-handed — tearing his left triceps hasn’t caused too many limitations. He’s still been able to make WWE appearances while injured even though he is not able to actually wrestle at the moment.
“I’ve been brutally injured, like, way more, more than this,” Paul said. “This one will have the longest recovery, but all things considered, it’s the least inconvenient injury possible. Because I have both hands, I’m right-handed, I just can’t bend it. It’s like, texting is a little annoying.”
Paul was given a six-month recovery timeline when he underwent triceps surgery in May. The injury happened during an episode of Saturday Night’s Main Event where Paul & Austin Theory defeated The Street Profits.
After the injury, Paul said he never knew how bad a torn triceps could actually be. The injury left him feeling “mentally stuck” because of how it halted his momentum in WWE.
The Vision lose World Tag Team titles —
At the time of his injury, Paul & Theory were the World Tag Team Champions. The Vision kept the titles despite Paul’s injury, with WWE allowing any member of the faction to defend the belts. Their reign came to an end on Raw this week when The Street Profits defeated Theory & Bron Breakker. Paul made the trip to London for the Raw episode and tried to help his Vision teammates retain, but Joe Hendry and Seth Rollins put a stop to that.
This Saturday’s Night of Champions PLE in Saudi Arabia will see Rollins and Breakker face off in a steel cage match.
