During the WWE Hell in a Cell Kickoff show, it was confirmed by Kayla Braxton that Cody Rhodes is indeed injured. Braxton said that Rhodes tore his right pec off the bone while training.
Rhodes is still scheduled for his HIAC match with Seth Rollins but one would assume that they will do something to write Rhodes off TV so he can get surgery. This type of injury usually requires months for recovery.
The injury has caused WWE to make changes to tonight’s plans for the main event and the plans have reportedly changed several times. The injury throws a wrench into what was planned for Rhodes during the summer. Cody Rhodes was set to be pushed as a main eventer for upcoming pay-per-view events, most notably the Money In The Bank pay-per-view.
