McMahon recently took to his Instagram to share a photo of him working out. Despite suffering a quad tear, around three weeks at WrestleMania 39 during his surprise return against The Miz. McMahon made his return at The Grandest Stage of them all, only to suffer an injury and be sidelined.

However, he now defied all logical explanations, as he engaged in strenuous activities in the gym alongside NFL star Derrick Henry. Henry is a giant and weighs a massive 250 lbs. McMahon putting hours into the gym alongside Henry, shocked the world and also portrayed how tough he actually is.

Despite having a torn quad, McMahon lifted weights and performed lateral raises, hammer curls, dumbbell bench presses, crunches, and other shoulder workouts. It was relieving seeing McMahon come back from his injury stronger than ever. But does his father Vince McMahon and himself share the unlucky consequence of suffering a similar injury?

Did Shane McMahon undergo the same injury his father Vince McMahon did years ago?

Shane McMahon returned at WrestleMania 39 after an absence of 14 months and tore off his quad during an impromptu match against The Miz. He would soon undergo surgery to repair the injury, and then come back stronger to hit the gym.
