Professional wrestler Tyler Bate has recently announced that he will be taking some time off from the ring due to a couple of nasty injuries he sustained during a match. The 27-year-old, who is part of the New Catch Republic alongside fellow Englishman Pete Dunne, was injured during their match on last week's episode of NXT.
As a result, Bate has undergone surgery and is currently in recovery. He shared a post on Instagram, where he can be seen in a hospital bed and a mirror selfie with his left arm in a sling. In the caption, he explains that he tore his left pectoral major and tendon off the bone, but the surgery was successful and everything has been put back in its place.
Despite the setback, Bate remains in good spirits and even signs off the message with his own nickname, the "Big Strong Boi." He assures his fans that he will be back soon and asks them not to miss him too much. The injury occurred during a match against the NXT team Hank & Tank, and Bate's fellow wrestlers have flooded his post with messages of support.
NXT Women's North American Champion Kelani Jordan and former NXT wrestler Camron Branae sent praying hand emojis, while current Women's World Champion Liv Morgan expressed her support. Bate's fellow NXT UK roster member Sam Gradwell also sent his well wishes, saying that there is no obstacle too great for Bate to overcome.
It has been a rollercoaster year for Bate, who made his SmackDown debut in January alongside Dunne. He described the experience as "ideal" and felt proud to represent British wrestling on the main stage. However, he also acknowledges the pressure that comes with it and the responsibility to deliver a high-quality performance.
Despite being on the shelf, Bate remains positive and excited for what the future holds. He looks forward to seeing the culmination of his hard work and is grateful for the support from his fans and fellow wrestlers.
