WWE Superstar, Bronson Reed, remains in a hospital in Saudi Arabia after sustaining an injury during Crown Jewel 2026, with reports indicating that he has yet to receive medical clearance to return to the United States.
According to Fightful Select, Reed was not among the WWE personnel who boarded the flight back to the United States following the company’s latest premium live event. Instead, the Australian powerhouse has remained in Saudi Arabia to continue receiving medical attention.
The injury reportedly occurred during the World Tag Team Championship match at Crown Jewel 2026, which featured reigning champions Bron Breakker and Austin Theory defending their titles against PENTA and Je’Von Evans.
Reed became involved in the match before former NXT Champion Oba Femi made an unexpected appearance. Femi launched an attack on Reed, eventually sending him crashing from the entrance stage through a table in a dramatic moment.
Reed’s absence from WWE’s return flight was also reflected on the November 9 edition of Monday Night RAW in Greenville, South Carolina. During the broadcast, commentator Wade Barrett informed viewers that Reed was still hospitalized following the incident at Crown Jewel.
Further information surrounding the situation suggests that Reed may have suffered significant internal injuries. According to internal claims, “there were rib and kidney injuries.”
WWE is reportedly taking extra precautions to ensure that the injured superstar receives the necessary medical attention while remaining in Saudi Arabia. The company has assigned a member of its medical staff to stay alongside Reed throughout his treatment.
Additionally, WWE’s top international executive is reportedly in the region to monitor the situation and coordinate the necessary arrangements for the superstar. The company is said to be ensuring that Reed receives “VIP treatment” during his recovery.
Reed currently competes as part of The Vision faction, alongside Bron Breakker, Austin Theory, and Maxxine Dupri. However, his involvement in the Crown Jewel championship encounter did not prevent the group from suffering a setback, as Breakker and Theory eventually dropped the World Tag Team Championships to PENTA and Je’Von Evans.
For now, there is no confirmed timetable for Reed’s return to WWE television, as his immediate priority remains receiving medical treatment and recovering from the injuries sustained at Crown Jewel 2026.
