Kofi Kingston has shared gory images of his stitches and scars after undergoing surgery this week.
The WWE superstar recovering from a nasty ankle injury earlier this month, which will sadly exclude him from a match at WrestleMania 39 in Hollywood on April 1-2.
He revealed that he has entered the physical therapy phase of his rehab clinic, captioning the clip, “Even though my current persona is sum” as a Humpty Dumpty and a Frankenstein, it’s time to WORK!
Day 1 of physiotherapy was today! Take off the sling for the first time since the operation…’
Fans and fellow wrestlers flooded the post with messages of support, including ex-WWE star Sasha Banks – now known as Mercedes Mone in New Japan Pro Wrestling – who wrote: “Wishing you a speedy recovery.”
NXT North American Champion Wes Lee added, “Safe and speedy recovery big bruh.”
Raw star Mustafa Ali also wished him a “speedy recovery,” while backstage interviewer Megan Morant said, “Thinking of you and wishing you a speedy recovery.”
Some friends were a little less sympathetic, as Ricochet joked, “You just wanted more time in the lab,” and WWE Costume Designer Sarath Ton (AKA Mikaze) added, “Surgery is no excuse not to put on lotion.” [Shelton Benjamin] would be ashamed’.
The star of the new day was injured during a fight while he and Xavier Woods got into a scandal involving Drew McIntyre, Sheamus, LA Knight and Karrion Kross, with the stars claiming an Intercontinental Championship match against GUNTHER on the big show.
Even though it’s not a real match, Kofi did not come out unscathedhurting his ankle when McIntyre dove over the top rope and landed awkwardly on the former world champion.
He later confirmed that he would need surgery to repair the damage, and he went to Birmingham, Alabama on Friday for the surgery.
