superstar Cody Rhodes has suffered a torn pectoral tendon with fans concerned for his injury status at.

The with Seth Freakin’ Rollins inside the iconic and devilish structures in one of tonight’s flagship matches as their rivalry gets taken to another level.

In a statement less than an hour before the show got underway, WWE tweeted: ‘BREAKING: @CodyRhodes suffered a partially torn right pectoral tendonon #WWERaw.’

Speaking on the Hell In A Cell 2022 Kickoff show, host Kayla Braxton added: ‘While weight training in preparation, the tendon tore completely off the bone.’

However, Rhodes is still set for the main event, while fans will be concerned about his short term future in the ring after the bout.

He is yet to address the injury publicly, but he appeared to respond to reports earlier in the day as he shared a photo from the Allstate Arena in Chicago and wrote: ‘You ready Chicago? #HIAC @WWE’

With WWE directly addressing the real life injury, it appears Rhodes has been cleared to wrestle on the show, as there would have been ample time to pull him from the event.
