Ludwig Kaiser Couldn’t Breathe After Suffering Injury During 6/24 WWE RAW

Ludwig Kaiser gained prominence as a member of Imperium but he was on a hot streak as a singles star until injury forced him to take time off to recover. In fact, Kaiser stated that he couldn’t breathe after suffering a broken ribs injury last month.

On the June 24th edition of Monday Night RAW, Ludwig Kaiser faced off against Bron Breakker. The match ended in a disqualification due to interference from Sheamus, who was involved in a feud with Kaiser at the time. Following the bout, it was revealed that Kaiser had sustained an injury and has not competed since.

While speaking in a recent interview with Metro, Kaiser talked about the injury he sustained during a series of matches. He described a particularly tough weekend, starting with a dark match on Friday during SmackDown, followed by live matches over the next two days, and ending with a Raw match. Kaiser revealed that he was already dealing with some rib issues before the incident.

Kaiser recounted that early in the match, within the first minute or so, he landed and immediately felt his rib break. He experienced severe pain, making it difficult to breathe and move, yet he continued to compete for ten more minutes despite the injury.

“It was one of the rougher weekends, it was a dark [match] on Friday on SmackDown, the next two days I did live matches and then the Raw match.I was a little banged up before, I had a little bit of a problem with my rib before. And yeah, very, very early in the match – actually, I think like the first minute or the second, I landed, and I felt right away that my rib was broken. I couldn’t breathe anymore really, couldn’t really move anymore. Yeah, that was the situation.”

It is to be noted that Ludwig Kaiser is currently advertised to participate in a dark match on the August 30th edition of SmackDown in Berlin, Germany, as a prelude to WWE Bash in Berlin on August 31st, so we’ll have to see if Kaiser will make his in-ring return next month.
