One WWE star might return in time for WrestleMania 41 this April, or at least that’s the current hope.
Tonga Loa, who suffered a torn bicep during the Survivor Series: WarGames match this past November, has been recovering from surgery. In the WarGames bout, Loa teamed with The Bloodline and Bronson Reed in a losing effort against Roman Reigns, The Usos, Sami Zayn, and CM Punk. Following the injury, it was estimated that Loa would be sidelined for seven to eight weeks.
On a recent edition of SportsKeeda’s Backstage Pass Q&A, WrestleVotes reported that WWE is aiming for Loa to be back on TV by WrestleMania:
“They’re shooting for Wrestlemania. I don’t know if they have a spot for him. You know, I wouldn’t say that he’s got a tag match lined up, but they’re shooting that he’s back on TV around WrestleMania.”
Whether Loa will have a defined role at the event remains uncertain, but his potential return around the biggest show of the year could open up opportunities for him to re-enter the spotlight. Fans will be watching closely for updates on his recovery and potential involvement at WrestleMania 41.
