20 Injured WWE Stars (And When They're Set To Return)
16. Javier Bernal
Big things appeared to be on the horizon for 'Big Body Javi', whose frequent NXT Level Up presentation, alongside one-off SmackDown and Main Event appearances, foretold a potential breakthrough moment for the former college football player, that was until a mistimed ringside dive from Chase U's Riley Osbourne resulted in Bernal's foot breaking in a "few places".
With this, Javier Bernal, the character, stepped aside as the real-life Randy Beidelschies was frankly scared as he underwent his first surgery. Thankfully, that surgery was a success, and medical staff informed him that he should have the all-clear after around six months.
Returning: January 2025, at the earliest.
