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.
