Joey Janela recently announced that he was forced to pull out of some pro wrestling dates. He gave hope that he will return to the ring soon, but he didn’t specify what the problem was.
During a chat with the Wrestling Perspective podcast, Joey Janela explained why he’s out of action right now. He’s dealing with a concussion, but hopes to be cleared soon so he can get back to work.
I’ll be coming back soon. I’m dealing with an injury right now, a little concussion deal. Shit happens, everyone knows that, it’s wrestling. All sports, everyone gets concussions. I’ll be cleared from that in the coming weeks, maybe the coming weekend. I’ll be good and hopefully doing AEW stuff soon. Things were about to pick up for me right before [the concussion].
Joey Janela recently made headlines when he was kicked out of a Seminole County School Board meeting after he was yelling about mask mandates. This captured a lot of attention, but Janela hasn’t received a spotlight for his wrestling abilities in a while. Hopefully, that will change soon as he heals up from this recent concussion issue.
