Cody Rhodes was on a roll following his big return to WWE at WrestleMania 38, but his momentum was halted when it was revealed that he had to step away from in-ring competition due to a torn pectoral tendon.

Rhodes underwent surgery to repair the injury last month, but there’s no set date for his WWE return. The former Intercontinental Champion recently appeared on Busted Open Radio, and he noted that the doctors are being coy when it comes to a timeline for him to get back in the ring.

“There’s a lot of people who have had knee injuries, back injuries, sometimes spinal and neck. When it comes to the titty, your pec, it’s a really strange injury. They tie that sucker back to your bicep. I had Dr. (Jeffrey) Dugas, he’s the best in the world to do it. The problem with him doing it is, he knows me, and they are being very coy. I was told the last time I was there for my check up, after PT [physical therapy], they are not going to give me a timeline just yet for when I’m going to be back because they are afraid that if they give me that timeline, I’m going to try and jump it by a month or two. The surgery was really…I almost hemorrhaged in the surgery because there was so much blood. People have seen the picture of it in the match. It was pretty gnarly.”

Stay tuned for more updates on Cody’s WWE return as they become available.
