MLW Roster Injuries, Two Current Champions Among The Injured

By Jake Drury Last updated Nov 25, 2018

There has been a slew of injuries to hit the independent scene recently. What makes these injuries more devastating than they already are, is the fact that most of the recently injured wrestlers compete or have been scheduled to compete for Major League Wrestling.

Joey Janela hurt his knee a few months ago and had to have surgery on his knee keeping him out for over eight months.

Joey Ryan tore his pec the night before MLW Fightland and will also need surgery.
