WWE issued a storyline injury update on Elias this morning during The Bump and noted that he has been released from a hospital following the hit & run incident with Jeff Hardy during Friday’s SmackDown on FOX.
As noted over the weekend, WWE issued a storyline update then and noted that Elias suffered broken ribs and a torn pectoral muscle, and was still in the hospital. It sounds like he will be back to appearing on SmackDown this week.
On a related note, WWE issued a poll asking fans who they think is the real culprit behind Friday’s attack after Hardy was cleared. As of this writing, 44% voted for King Baron Corbin while 34% went with Sheamus, 9% for AJ Styles and 14% for other.
Stay tuned for updates on the Elias storyline injury.
