Finn Balor Looks at “Rollercoaster Week”, Comments on Surgery Details and More

Finn Balor posted the following on his Twitter account looking back at the rough week he just went through, noting that a one-hour surgery turned into four and that he knew the injury was serious when it first happened.

The following are a number of tweets from former WWE Universal Champion Finn Balor, who’s currently recuperating from a rather rough seven day stretch. He notes that his surgery, originally scheduled for one hour, turned into four:

What a rollercoaster week.
I woke up the morning of Summerslam with nothing but positivity & feeling physically better than ever

The moment I got injured I knew it was serious, it was an instinctive reaction to pull on my wrist, I entered survival mode.

When the bell rang, I had won, I was the Champion, but I was reluctant to celebrate as I already knew in my heart what awaited at Raw

Disappointed yes, but I was CHAMPION and I was not missing an opportunity to fulfill my duty and appear on @GMA Monday morning.

After hours of scans & despite some hope, the worst was confirmed at 5pm Monday.
I would need surgery ASAP & relinquish the title on Raw

— Finn Bálor (@FinnBalor) August 28, 2016

The most difficult part of relinquishing the title was when I came back through the curtain and I was over come by a feeling of inadequacy

Despite every emotion I had felt the previous 24 hours…
I was still the CHAMPION. That gave me strength.
Now I was not….

Tuesday at 3am I traveled to Birmingham Alabama.
Dr.Dugas prepped me for surgery as a photo of Seth Rollins watched over us.

What was supposed to be a 1hr surgery turned into 4hr, as once I was opened up ,the Dr found a lot more to the injury the the scans showed

180* labrum tear
Thorn bicep and pectoral tendon
Cartilage damage
& Fracture to the glenoid neck socket
(I have it in a jar on my dresser)

Wednesday morning at 5am I awake after the surgery groggy and sore. The gravity of the situation began to set in.
Rehab will start at 9am.
