The recent injury which WWE Superstar Tyson Kidd suffered during a match against Samoa Joe at last week’s SmackDown taping in Houston, Texas could be quite serious and require surgery according to a report by The Wrestling Observer. 

The injury is said to be a spinal cord one, although WWE have not released much information regarding the extent due to the recent concussion lawsuits.

WWE Hall of Famers Steve Austin and Edge suffered similar injuries and both took time to reached out to Tyson Kidd to provide advice and support.

The initial feeing is Kidd could be out for up to a year if he does need surgery.
