We noted earlier this month that one half of the current TNA Tag Team Champions The Wolves, Davey Richards suffered a knee injury on January 31 at an Impact Wrestling taping in Birmingham, England.

Richards underwent reconstructive knee surgery last week to repair a torn ACL. Richards will likely be out of action until somewhere between mid-August and November, according to The Wrestling Observer Newsletter. Richards recently signed a new guaranteed deal with the company, so there’s no real pressure for him to return early.

There has been a lot of speculation about TNA Tag Team Champions The Wolves possibly talking with WWE once their deals expire soon. We do know there was recent WWE interest in the two but they will not be signing with NXT as they have re-signed with TNA, according to PWInsider.

TNA was looking to lock-in several of their top talents and this is a part of that. Eddie Edwards and Davey Richards have reportedly re-signed exclusive deals with the company but TNA does have the right to book The Wolves with indies and international companies as third party bookings.
