NXT Superstar Odyssey Jones provided an update on his WWE return during a recent interview appearance.

The up-and-coming star burst onto the scene during the tail-end of NXT's fabled black-and-gold era. Competing in the NXT Breakout Tournament, Jones went to the finals but lost to Carmelo Hayes. He has been off WWE TV for most of 2022 after suffering a ruptured Patella Tendon during a dark match in January.

Speaking to the Wrestling The Rap Game podcast, Jones spoke about his injury, stating that he takes full responsibility. Describing the circumstances, he said:

“I went for an up and over and went up, but didn’t go over. Went up and straight down. I was being… I could have worked smarter. I didn’t work smart enough. That’s my learning curve.God willing, if I get another opportunity to get back out there and do it again, I know for a fact that I'll do it better," Jones said (H/T Fightful)

Having undergone successful surgery, the NXT Star is on the road to recovery. However, Jones is trying not to stress about it:

"I’m excited for the return, but I try not to think about it too much. It’s the light at the end of the tunnel and a little bit out of reach. I’d rather be where my a** is and focus on things. I’m already walking, braced up, no crutch. Six weeks post-op, seven weeks from the injury.”
It was God I’ll never say I got it by myself 🙏🏿

How long has Odyssey Jones been with WWE?

Though he made his first televised appearance in 2021, Odyssey Jones has been signed to the company since 2019.
