Javier Bernal’s Expected Absence Due to Injury Recovery Revealed

Javier Bernal recently endured a significant injury that will likely keep him out of action for a while, especially now that he has undergone surgery. In fact, the expected length of time of his absence has been revealed.

On the June 7th episode of Level Up, Bernal competed in his latest match. However, he later shocked fans during a Twitch stream by revealing that he had broken his foot in multiple places.

Last week, Javier Bernal confirmed he underwent surgery for his foot injury and has been on the road to recovery ever since. According to Dave Meltzer in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Javier Bernal is expected to be on the shelf for six months or longer.

The injury occurred on June 4 during a tag match with Duke Hudson and Riley Osborne against Bernal and Drake Morreaux, taped for Level Up. Bernal’s knee gave out while catching Osborne on a dive.

”Javier Bernal (Randy Beidelschies, 25) underwent knee surgery on 6/21 in Birmingham, AL. He’ll be out six months or longer.”

Regardless, we’ll have to wait and see when he will be able to make his in-ring return to NXT television as fans simply want him to return as soon as possible and go back to doing what he loves the most.
