Bronson Reed Injured During Raw
Bronson Reed was attended to by medical staff during a triple threat match on WWE Raw after appearing to injure his arm. Reed broke up a pin and immediately signaled discomfort, prompting medical officials to check on him outside the ring. His status for upcoming events including the Elimination Chamber remains unclear.
- The match where the injury occurred was a qualifying bout for the final spot in the men's Elimination Chamber match, taking place on the February 23, 2026, episode of Raw in Atlanta. The other competitors were Jey Uso and El Grande Americano. - WWE announcer Michael Cole later confirmed the specific nature of the injury as a distal bicep tear, stating that Reed will be out of action indefinitely. - According to multiple reports, Bronson Reed was the planned winner of the match and was slated to enter the Elimination Chamber. Due to the injury, the finish was changed on the fly, with Jey Uso pinning El Grande Americano to win. - The typical recovery time for a torn bicep injury is between four and eight months, which would likely cause him to miss the upcoming WrestleMania 42. - Reed's injury is the latest setback for his faction, "The Vision," with fellow members Seth Rollins and Bron Breakker also currently out of action due to their own injuries. - This is not Reed's first significant time away due to injury; he spent the first half of 2025 recovering from an ankle injury sustained at the 2024 WWE Survivor Series event. - Jey Uso will now take the final spot in the Elimination Chamber match, facing Randy Orton, LA Knight, Cody Rhodes, Je'Von Evans, and Trick Williams.
