When is Logan Paul expected to return to WWE following his injury?
In a high-voltage main event, Roman Reigns defeated Logan Paul at Crown Jewel 2022 to retain his Undisputed WWE Universal Championship. The match ended when Reigns knocked out his opponent with a Superman Punch and followed it with a Spear.
Logan's performance is being widely praised by the WWE Universe. His athleticism was top-notch and the underdog was able to deliver some major hiccups to Reigns in his title defense. For the nth time in a row, Roman emerged victorious due to a distraction from The Bloodline.
Following the showdown, Logan Paul took to Twitter to reveal that he had torn his ACL and meniscus during his fight with The Tribal Chief. The injury occurred mid-way during the 25-minute-long match - an incredible feat to pull off considering that he nailed some high-flying moves.
WHAT. A. FROG. SPLASH.

A torn ACL usually takes six to eight months to heal. Meanwhile, the time to repair a torn meniscus is six weeks to three months depending on the severity. The case of Seth Rollins can be taken as an example. The multi-time champion suffered a similar injury on November 4, 2015, during a match against Kane at a live event in Dublin, Ireland.
The injury required surgery and it was estimated that Rollins will be out of action for approximately six to nine months. He made a quick recovery and returned at Extreme Rules in May of next year.
