In a recent episode of his Kliq This podcast, WWE Hall of Famer Kevin Nash revealed that he will be undergoing surgery for a torn biceps injury, noting that it was something that MRI’s he underwent last month had missed at the time.

“I got the MRI, my orthopedic looked at it and he said there’s not a tear, I don’t see a tear in your biceps. When the radiologist read it, there were no tears in any of my rotator cuffs.”

Nash noted that when he resumed training, he started to feel his biceps cramping when he was working out on a curl machine

“At about 9 reps, I could just feel my left biceps cramping and I was just like, oh f*** me, because when you tear a biceps, it cramps. Not to blame the MRI, but I’ve got so much hardware in my shoulder that’s holding everything together that when they take an MRI, you get a lot of artifact, so you don’t get really true readings.”

Nash noted that he will undergo a procedure that will keep him out of the gym for at least 6 weeks.

I saw my orthopedist and we sat down and reviewed slides of my bicep tendons, which appeared intact at the time. What they’ll do is they’ll go in and they’ll make an incision, and then they’ll weave sutures into the tendon that’s there, hoping that it hasn’t already retracted all the way. You basically drill a hole through the humerus and stick the bicep tendon through the humerus.”
