On Monday, November 18, PROGRESS took to social media to reveal that Vikingo has been pulled from the show due to injury, with the star saying that he wouldn't be able to compete at the high level that he would want to for his European debut.
From PROGRESS (via X):
El Hijo Del Vikingo injury update:
Despite recovering he will not be ready to compete to the high level he would want for a European debut.
We are working on a new date with Vikingo and hope to see him very soon in a PROGRESS ring, hopefully before year end.
Vikingo's knee injury was suffered during a match with Trent Seven at TNA's television tapings on October 27. On October 31, Vikingo said that the injury didn't cause any significant ligament damage and that he planned to return to the ring in 20 days.
Vikingo made his return to the ring on November 3 and then November 17, teaming with Octagon Jr. to defeat Alberto El Patron and El Mesias at AAA's Origenes event.
Fightful will update fans when PROGRESS announces a new date for Vikingo's debut.
