Report: Tyler Bate Close To Returning From Torn Pectoral

Tyler Bate is reportedly close to returning.

Bate has been out of action since July 2024. He has not wrestled since he and Pete Dunne beat Hank And Tank (Hank Walker & Tank Ledger) on the July 2nd episode of WWE NXT. WWE announced that he suffered an injury on the July 8th episode of WWE Raw. Bate then stated that he tore his left pectoral major and tendon off the bone, and he had surgery.
