Solo Sikoa recruited Bronson Reed to compete alongside The Bloodline in the Men's WarGames Match at WWE Survivor Series. CM Punk joined Roman Reigns' team for the clash, and the OG Bloodline wound up defeating Sikoa's squad at the premium live event this past Saturday.

Reed went for a Tsunami Splash from the top of the cage during the match but appeared to injure his ankles during the spot. The former NXT North American Champion was becoming a major star on the main roster but may be forced to miss some time following Survivor Series: WarGames.

#4. Braun Strowman has been out of action for a few months

Braun Strowman and Bronson Reed clashed in a Last Monster Standing Match on the September 30 edition of WWE RAW. Seth Rollins got involved in the clash and helped Strowman emerge victorious inside a collapsed ring.

Unfortunately, The Monster of All Monsters suffered a groin tear during the match and has not returned to action since. The former Universal Champion has been providing fans with updates on social media as he works his way back to the ring.

#3. Asuka has been out with an injury since Backlash

Jade Cargill and Bianca Belair defeated The Kabuki Warriors (Asuka and Kairi Sane) to capture the Women's Tag Team Championship at Backlash in May. The 43-year-old was supposed to compete in the Queen of the Ring Tournament following the premium live event but was pulled due to a knee injury.

The Empress of Tomorrow has not returned to the ring since her injury but did make an appearance during WWE's tour in Japan earlier this year. The veteran is a member of Damage CTRL, and her stablemate, IYO SKY, is the number one contender for the Women's World Championship.

#2. Randy Orton has not been seen since he was attacked by Kevin Owens

Randy Orton has been absent from WWE television since Kevin Owens brutally attacked him on the November 8 edition of SmackDown. Owens hit The Viper with a Piledriver and the 44-year-old was sent out of the arena in an ambulance.

The Prizefighter will be challenging Cody Rhodes for the Undisputed WWE Championship at Saturday Night's Main Event on December 14. Orton could potentially return at the massive show next weekend, or remain off television for a while longer to sell the injury sustained during Kevin Owens' attack last month.

Charlotte Flair suffered a major injury last year and has not been able to compete in a single match in 2024 thus far. The Queen tore her ACL, MCL, and meniscus during a clash against Asuka on the December 8, 2023, edition of SmackDown.

Flair has been providing regular updates to the WWE Universe on her road to recovery but still has not returned to the ring. The 38-year-old has accomplished a lot during her time in the company, and will likely be looking to capture gold when she returns to the ring down the line.
