“I talked to the Foot and Ankle doctor that I went to, who is one of my really good friends, and he was like ‘dude did you know that Michael Vick had this same injury and he was out for four months, like chill out.’ And I was like, oh frick.”
Recent reports also suggested that AJ Styles will be evaluated by WWE doctors this month. A full-fledged diagnosis process will be done after which his status for Wrestlemania 39 should be clearer.
