The stars have been out of action due to injury!
Despite recent layoffs, the WWE roster is still stacked with Superstars who deliver weekly episodes of Raw and SmackDown, making it one of the best promotions in the world. However, some of these stars are sometimes forced out of action due to multiple reasons, a major one being an injury.
Injuries hinder a superstar’s ability to perform and even sometimes force them into retirement. The jaw-dropping moves sometimes cause severe harm to the superstars, and some injuries are also sustained outside the ring.
While multiple stars have recently overcome injuries, including CM Punk, Charlotte Flair, Tyler Bate, and AJ Styles, among others, few superstars have been forced out of action due to injuries. Let us now take a look at the list of injured WWE Superstars as of May 2025.
