WWE has now shared an official update on the status of The Viking Raiders' Ivar after he appeared to suffer an injury during a six-man tag team match last night on Raw.

Ivar dived through the ropes to take down members of The Hurt Business on the outside, and although he appeared to land safely enough, he threw up the "X" sign (an indication that a legit injury has occurred and assistance is needed) almost immediately.

The match went on for a while longer, before the referee called for the bell when Ricochet kicked out on two after being hit with a Michinoku Driver from Cedric Alexander (surely there was a better way to communicate that they needed to go to the finish?), and it then became clear that something was wrong as medical staff rushed to Ivar's side.

At any rate, WWE has revealed that Ivar sustained some kind of "cervical injury" as a result of the dive, but didn't share any specifics. He is expected to make a full recovery, but we have no idea how long he'll be out of action for.
