With Dominik Mysterio avoiding elbow surgery, it looks like he'll be back in the ring fairly soon.

It was feared that Dominik would need to undergo Tommy John surgery, but he's rehabbing the injury through physical therapy instead of having surgery done. Dave Meltzer reports in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter that Dominik expects to be back in 6-8 weeks.

Dominik Mysterio, who was at first expected to need surgery for his elbow injury, will instead be avoiding surgery and going with [physical] therapy. He expects to be back in six to eight weeks. As noted last week, the injury was viewed as a freak accident in his 4/15 match on TV with Andrade.

There's an ongoing storyline where WWE is teasing something between Dominik and Liv Morgan. The two could be seen coming out of the same room on Raw earlier this week. The storyline is happening while Dominik's Judgment Day partner Rhea Ripley is out of action for "quite a few months" due to a shoulder injury.

Morgan was feuding with Ripley at the time of her injury and has taken credit for forcing Ripley out of action. Ripley had to vacate the Women's World Championship, with the title then being won by Becky Lynch.

Dominik, Damian Priest, Finn Balor, and JD McDonagh remained on the Raw roster in the WWE Draft. Morgan was also drafted to Raw. Ripley wasn't included in the draft due to her injury.
