WWE WrestleMania 38 has been full of surprises thus far but also full of scares as WWE SmackDown superstar Rick Boogs suffered a scary injury while tagging with Shinsuke Nakamura against Jimmy and Jey Uso. The official WWE Twitter account would acknowledge the injury by stating the following: “The WWE Universe wishes Rick Boogs a quick recovery following last night’s injury at #WrestleMania 38.”
Boogs suffered a torn quadriceps and patella tendon on Saturday night’s event and will have to undergo surgery to repair the injury. Michael Cole, WWE Smackdown play-by-play commentator would make the announcement later on in the show that there is no timetable for Boogs to return to the WWE as well.
In other news revolving around Rick Boogs, wrestling managing great, Kenny Bolin recently discussed both Shinsuke Nakamura and Boogs before WWE WrestleMania 38 weekend. Bolin would make the following comments on Sportskeeda Wrestling‘s WrestleMania Preview show. Credit to the outlet for the below.
“I don’t see them putting the belts on those two. I love Shinsuke with a passion; I hate what they are doing with him right now; I say The Usos continue their streak,” said Kenny Bolin. “Even though, if they want to elevate Shinsuke and this clown a little bit, that would be the way to do it. But I wouldn’t do it. I’d just keep it on The Usos and find a legit tag team to do something about it.”
“I’m not on the wagon. He (Bolin’s son) says there is something there; it’s not main event material; there could be a job for him,” continued the former manager. “We always look, ‘Is there a job for this guy?’ There is a job for him, but it’s not the one he has right now, playing the electric guitar for Shinsuke Nakamura and getting electrified by microphones or whatever it was.”
