Mike Bennett Reveals Ankle Injury After Attack At ROH Final Battle
On last night's ROH Final Battle, The Kingdom reunited as Mike Bennett and Matt Taven defeated Vincent and Bateman in a tag team match. Afterwards, Vita Vonstarr lowblowed both Bennett and Taven, which allowed Vincent to tie Taven up in the ropes. A block of wood was then brought out and Vincent put it between's Bennett's feet, whacking the side with a chair.
Earlier today, Bennett announced earlier today he has sustained a storyline hairline fracture that will keep him out about six weeks.
"I wanted to wait till later this week to address my ankle because I didn't want it to take away from #FinalBattle," Bennett wrote. "But I think it's better to get it out there & move past it. I have a hairline fracture in my ankle. Recovery time is about 6 weeks. I'll be back sooner."
After being released from WWE due to business cuts from the COVID-19 pandemic, Bennett returned to ROH last month.
