Smackdown Superstar’s Injury Reportedly Worse Than Expected

May 2, 2025 Off By Tim Jarrell

One WWE superstar could miss the rest of the year.

A few weeks back, we saw WWE do an angle with LA Knight where he slammed Tama Tonga’s arm in a car door. We have since learned that was done to write Tama off TV for a real injury that will require surgery. Yet it seems the injury is worse than expected.

On the latest WrestleVotes Radio, JoeyVotes and TC talked about Tama Tonga’s current injury, noting, “It’s worse than what was anticipated.” This now has how long Tama may be out of action unknown, and it could be the rest of 2025. The two also talked about how this could be a good thing as well, though.

With Tama’s brother Tonga Loa also out of action, WWE could keep them off TV till both are cleared to return and then somewhat repackage them as their own thing, not linked to the Bloodline with either Solo Sikoa or Jacob Fatu.

If we do hear anything else on Tama Tonga’s injury, we will have it here and on the PWUnlimited YouTube Channel.
