13 Injured WWE Stars (And When They're Set To Return)

7. Drew McIntyre

Drew McIntyre Biceps Injury NXT
WWE

Drew McIntyre walked into TakeOver: WarGames with the NXT Championship around his waist and a main roster call-up seemingly on the horizon, but left only with a torn bicep. The big Scot suffered the injury during his title defence against Andrade 'Cien' Almas, and while it looked like a work in the heat of the moment, it was confirmed as legitimate after the show.

It's a shame, as McIntyre was in the midst of the hottest run of his WWE career at the time. The positive news is that there's a strong chance he'll be sent to Raw or SmackDown upon returning, but Drew has a long way to go yet.

Estimated Return: WrestleMania weekend.
