WWE News: Latest On Kane’s Injury, Status Moving Forward
Sunday at WWE’s Extreme Rules, the scheduled SmackDown Tag Team Championship match in which Team Hell No was to challenge The Bludgeon Brothers, did not quite go as fans or even the WWE had expected.
The Team Hell No reunion went awry as an angle was run earlier in the show where The Bludgeon Brothers ambushed Kane and Daniel Bryan backstage, leaving ‘The Devil’s Favorite Demon’ laying. Bryan would go on to compete the majority of the match on his own before Kane made his way to the ring sporting a walking boot, but the damage had already been done and The Bludgeon Brothers retained.
WWE later reported that Kane had suffered a broken ankle and while the severity of the injury was exaggerated, PWInsider later confirmed that he was in fact injured and that was the reason for the backstage attack (read that here). Some more details have now come out regarding the former WWE Champion’s status, as PWInsider has added that Kane injured the achilles tendon in his left foot on the final episode of SmackDown Live going into Extreme Rules, but the severity of the ailment is not known.
Of course, Kane is still in the midst of his bid for Mayor of Knox County, Tennessee and at this time he’s not expected to be returning to WWE television anytime soon.

TNA Impact on AMC Drops to 175,000 Viewers, 0.03 18-49 Rating Amid Heavy Sports Competition
TNA Thursday Night Impact averaged 175,000 viewers on AMC last week, a 17.5% decline from the previous week’s 212,000 and the lowest audience since January 22. The show posted a 0.03 rating in the key 18-49 demo, down 25% and matching its lowest demo figure on AMC since the move.
The drop coincided with stiff competition — Impact ran opposite the NFL Draft (simulcast on ESPN, ABC and the NFL Network) as well as NHL and NBA playoff coverage, leaving the program tied for 70th on the primetime cable charts. Versus the prior 10-week average (0.04 rating and 240,300 viewers), last week’s show fell 25% in the demo and 27.2% in overall viewers.

Nick Hogan Open to Pursuing In-Ring Career After Viewing Hulk Hogan: Real American
Nick Hogan told the Bonus Edition of the 83 Weeks podcast that after watching the final version of Hulk Hogan: Real American he’s more open than ever to stepping into the ring if the opportunity presents itself. Hogan said he’s been knocking off ring rust, is in good shape and “would absolutely welcome” the chance to pursue an in‑ring career, and noted the docuseries — which premiered on Netflix on April 22, 2026 — helped clarify his father’s legacy.
He also praised the series for pulling back the curtain on the many facets of Hulk Hogan, from character work to charitable efforts, saying it showed how dynamic a person his father is. Nick added that the long-discussed Chris Hemsworth biopic from 2019 remains a possibility despite delays, as the documentary continues to renew interest in Hogan’s story.
