His tag team partner Ivar is also on the injury shelf after he suffered an injury on the September 7 episode of WWE Raw after performing a suicide dive to the outside during a match. Ivar immediately knew something was wrong, throwing up the "X" sign for himself as the camera cut away. An audible was called for the finish and the camera did show medical staff attending to Ivar after the eight-man tag.

It is unknown how long both Erik and Ivar are going to be out for.
