Backstage Injury Updates: Undertaker, CM Punk & Sheamus

Source: The Wrestling Observer Newsletter

– The Undertaker underwent shoulder surgery in the past week to repair his torn rotator cuff. Obviously the hope is that he's healthy in time for WrestleMania, but it's not guaranteed and it will depend on how his recovery goes. We'll keep you posted.

– CM Punk, who injured his lower back at WWE's Bragging Rights pay-per-view, opted not to have surgery because a doctor told him he'd be able to rehab what's believed to be a torn muscle tendon. Punk will be out of action until at least January, but will be healthy in time for WrestleMania season.

– Sheamus has a real nasty bruise on one of his legs and was seen limping around backstage at television this past week. He's not expected to miss any ring time.
