Kofi Kingston is now on the road to recovery from an ankle injury after undergoing surgery to fix it on Saturday morning.
Kingston was part of a segment during the March 3rd edition of WWE SmackDown where he injured his ankle while doing a spot at ringside as Drew McIntyre did a flip dive taking out several wrestlers.
Kingston was replaced by Xavier Woods in a fatal five-way Intercontinental Title number one contender’s match the following week on SmackDown.
The initial hope was Kingston wouldn’t need surgery, but it was soon determined that he needed it, which he had done in Birmingham, Alabama.
Kingston wrote the following on Instagram:
“Surgery went very well! Of course I had to FaceTime the boyzzz upon regaining consciousness…Very little recollection of the conversation, lol. Thanks to everybody who sent me a message! I appreciate it more than you know! I’m home now. Let the road to recovery begin!”
We wish him a speedy recovery.
