Having not competed since a 20 August live event, there's now an injury update on WWE's Luke Gallows.

Per Fightful Select, Gallows was due to have his knee scoped and was expected to be out of action for six weeks. However, it's not known when the big man had this scope, and it's also not known whether this estimated six-week timeframe commences from now or from when the scope took place.

In terms of WWE programming, Gallows has appeared more recently than that August house show, though he obviously has not wrestled. Of course, LG has been present as part of the OC as AJ Styles has got himself involved in Bloodline business; business that saw the Phenomenal One stretched out of the arena on this past Friday's episode of SmackDown.

Gallows is currently in the midst of his third run with the market leader, having initially been under contract from 2005 through until 2010, where he was first Imposter Kane, then Festus, before becoming part of the Straight Edge Society. Time away from WWE eventually saw Gallows team with Karl Anderson over in NJPW as part of Bullet Club, which led to those Good Brothers signing with WWE in 2016 and remaining with the promotion for for years.

This most recent run with WWE commenced last October, where Gallows and Anderson return to once again align themselves with AJ Styles.
