Trey Miguel is finally offering some good news after a scary injury update, and it looks like his road back to the ring is already taking shape.
The TNA star previously revealed that he suffered a broken patella following a brutal Meteora spot at Rebellion, an injury serious enough to sideline him for weeks. But now, there’s a clear timeline, and a much more optimistic outlook.
Miguel took to his Instagram Story and gave fans a detailed look at his recovery after meeting with his orthopedic specialist, confirming that things are progressing better than expected. He first explained that the fracture isn’t as severe as initially feared, which is why surgery won’t be needed.
“I just wrapped up with ortho—everything went well. It’s an undisplaced fracture, which means I won’t need surgery. As long as I keep my knee straight, it should be 100% again.”
Miguel then broke down what the next phase of recovery looks like, including when he’ll begin physical therapy and how quickly he expects to evaluate his progress.
“I start PT in two weeks—it shouldn’t take more than 2–3 sessions before I can self-assess based on the pain level I’m experiencing and try to get my knee bending on my own.”
Finally, he gave the clearest indication yet of when fans might see him back in the ring, while also acknowledging he still has some time to go.
“They said they’re assuming it will probably be about 10 weeks before I can be well and back around in the ring. It will be three weeks this Saturday, so I’ve still got a little bit of a journey ahead of me. But everything went smoothly today—I got a small brace, which feels smoother on my knee.”
That timeline is a major development considering the initial concern after Rebellion, where Miguel not only suffered the injury but still managed to finish his match against Mustafa Ali.
Bottom line: this could have been much worse. No surgery, a defined recovery plan, and a potential return window are already in place. Miguel’s not back yet, but this update makes it clear he’s on the right track and already looking ahead to getting back in the ring.
Do you think Trey Miguel should take the full recovery time before returning, or would you like to see him back sooner if he feels ready? Sound off in the comments.
