Ilja Dragunov has made a big splash since joining the main roster after a successful stint in NXT.
He has already had impressive matches with Gunther, Sami Zayn and Bron Breakker.
It seems that momentum will be stalled for at least six to nine months. Word is he tore his ACL.
The WWE has announced that Dragunov suffered an injury during his WWE World Heavyweight Championship match against Gunther at a house show in Columbus, Georgia, on Saturday.
