Bobby Lashley is currently suffering from an undisclosed injury and isn't expected to return to WWE for at least three months, according to Fightful. 2 November is his anticipated comeback date.

The source have, once again, gotten their hands on WWE's internal inactive list. There's no word whatsoever on what kind of injury he has suffered or when it was incurred, but 'The All Mighty' hasn't wrestled since competing in a 10-man battle royal for Universal Title contendership on the 15 July episode of Raw.

Lashley engaged in a big, beefy feud with Braun Strowman prior to that, highlighted by their set-destroying antics on 1 July and an awesome, destructive Last Man Standing battle at Extreme Rules. Having finally found his monstrous groove in recent months, the injury is as unfortunate as it is ill-timed.

Fightful's other updates include Jinder Mahal, whose return date is currently listed as 1 January. Tamina has no confirmed recovery timeframe for her concussion though Ricochet (who wrestled in Raw's gauntlet match) has recovered from his shoulder infection, and Peyton Royce has also been cleared to compete once more.

Here's hoping that all these injured stars mount a swift and complete recovery.
