Overview
- Logan Paul suffered the injury when Angelo Dawkins dove over the ropes and landed on him, which Paul says flexed his arm until the triceps snapped off the elbow and pulled a piece of bone free.
- The injury occurred during the May 23 Saturday Night’s Main Event tag-title defense, and Paul and Austin Theory still finished the match and retained the WWE World Tag Team Championship.
- Paul underwent surgery after the match, doctors gave an estimated six-month recovery window, and he has publicly said he intends to try to return sooner.
- WWE announced on Raw that The Vision can use the Freebird Rule so Bron Breakker will be recognized as a tag champion alongside Austin Theory while Paul recovers.
- Paul has given a detailed first-person account of the injury on his Impaulsive podcast, expressed regret for previously mocking CM Punk’s similar injury, and his absence adds to a string of Vision injuries that are forcing short-term booking changes for WWE.
