Earlier this year, Bronson Reed returned to WWE after undergoing a major physical transformation. Having lost a significant amount of weight, Reed came back to the promotion looking completely unrecognizable.
Joining back the Vision, Reed began a rivalry with Oba Femi. However, his feud with Femi turned out heavy when he was reportedly injured during his angle with Femi at WWE Crown Jewel in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
While Reed did not participate in a match at the Nov. 7, 2026 WWE Crown Jewel PLE, he was involved in a segment with Femi during Bron Breakker & Austin Theory's World Tag Team match against Penta and Je'Von Evans. The injury seemingly happened when Femi helped out Penta and Evans and fought off Reed. The 2026 King of the Ring Winner dropped Reed off the stage onto production equipment.
Shortly after, on WWE's Monday Night RAW, it was noted that Reed was hospitalized due to Femi’s attack. Fightful Select later confirmed that Reed was legitimately hurt and was not on the flight back to the USA.

Later, Dave Meltzer of F4WON also confirmed that Reed suffered broken ribs and a punctured lung.
Within a span of a few months, Reed found himself sustaining several injuries and staying out of action for a significant amount of time. As of now, there are no confirmed updates on Reed's health status or in-ring return timeline.
