According to Pro Wrestling Sheet, Dash Wilder of The Revival suffered an injury while working a WWE event this weekend. The superstar broke his jaw and after medical evaluation, it seems that he will be out of action until July.
Upon debuting in the main roster post-WrestleMania 33, The Revival targeted the longest reigning Tag team Champions, The New Day, and were successful in defeating them on two different occasions. The duo also decimated Kofi Kingston and broke his ankle during their first match on the main roster.

The Revival were a part of this week’s NXT live events, where the team bid adieu to the NXT Universe. Although Scott Dawson delivered a post-match promo, Wilder remained silent. Apparently, the injury occurred prior the show as the current NXT Champion Bobby Roode teamed up with Scott Dawson at that event to take on the team of Shinsuke Nakamura and Tye Dillinger.

WWE.com just confirmed the reports of the Superstar's injury through NXT’s leading medical man, Dr.Jeff Westerfield. He said:
“On Friday night, following an in-ring injury to the right side of his jaw, we sent [Wilder] to the ER for a CAT scan. The test came back showing a jaw fracture. As a result, he will be getting his jaw wired [Friday at 9 a.m.] and we are looking forward to him being back on the main roster in about eight weeks.”
Dash Wilder, upon being quizzed on his reaction to the injury and potential layoff, had this to say:
"Is it frustrating? Of course it is, but it's not going to stop The Revival. This is nothing. I've had worse than this and didn't even bat an eye. I'd be out there tonight with my jaw wired shut if they'd let me. We're as tough as we are talented. The last two weeks on Raw were just the beginning for us. We'll be back to take what's ours: those pretty little Raw Tag Team Titles."
We wish a speedy recovery to Dash Wilder and hope to see him back sooner and better than ever.
