Ivar of the Viking Raiders suffered a serious injury a couple of weeks ago during a tag team match on Monday Night RAW. He got injured after a botched dive attempt to the outside. He had to undergo neck surgery and now t seems the team might be splitting up.
Erik competed in a match during this week’s RAW Underground. He faced off against Riddick Moss in a match. Despite it being an intense affair, Eric was unable to win .
During Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer noted that Ivar will be on the shelf for a very long time.
“Ivar ain’t coming back any time soon. This was a major surgery and he’s got a lot of wear and tear.”
Meltzer then said that Erik of the Viking Raiders will have a very bad year while he is waiting for Ivar’s return to the ring. He also said that “there won’t even be a Viking Raiders” when Ivar does make his return as it is likely WWE will have Erik lose enough times so that he is no longer a formidable competitor.
