WWE Rumors: Shane McMahon Undergoes Surgery for Torn Quad from WrestleMania 39 Injury

After tearing his quad during his surprise appearance at WrestleMania 39, Shane McMahon has reportedly undergone surgery this week.

According to PWInsider (h/t Felix Upton of Ringside News), McMahon was flown to Birmingham, Alabama on Sunday for a procedure at the Andrew Sports Medicine & Orthopedic Center.

The 53-year-old shocked the WWE Universe when he appeared for an impromptu match against The Miz, but the joy of his return was short-lived after he went down with the injury in the opening seconds of the match.

Thankfully, the segment was saved by Snoop Dogg, who ran in and delivered a People's Elbow to The Miz while McMahon was being tended to by medical personnel.

The recovery from a torn quad can take up to a year or more, so it's likely that this injury will put an end to McMahon's days of competing in the ring.
