Finn Balor suffers injury at WWE SummerSlam

Finn Balor's crowning moment of winning the Universal title over Seth Rollins Sunday at WWE SummerSlam may be for naught as he was injured, believed to be suffered after he was power bombed into the barricade by Rollins.

The severity of the injury is unknown at this point as he's scheduled for an evaluation Monday at television, but his arm was in a sling post-show and there was fear he would need surgery.

If Balor is unable to perform for more than a few weeks, it'll require some major overhauls in creative plans since he was scheduled to headline all the Raw brand shows as the Universal Champion.

Of note, Balor appeared Monday morning with new WWE Women's Champion Charlotte on Good Morning America and was not wearing any type of sling.

Edit - He relinquished the title

Vanilla Midget King? Try Harder.

Another big star hurt by the hands of Seth Rollins...

 

[The Girl From Innsmouth]

Rollins, again?

I generally like his performances, but I'm inclined to believe there's some truth to Bret's discussion of his sloppiness and recklessness.

OOOooooo this a tough one @TheGreatShowtime

On one end do we clown "the vanilla midget king" for getting injured and already call him "fragile"

Or do we clown Seth for being dangerous, reckless, and NOT SAFE in the ring and cosign Brett GOATHart

As noted earlier today, Finn Balor suffered an injury during his match with Seth Rollins at last night's SummerSlam pay-per-view.

According to Dave Meltzer of F4WOnline.com, the injury is believed to have happened when Rollins powerbombed Balor into the barricades outside the ring.

The new WWE Universal Champion is scheduled for an evaluation at RAW today in Brooklyn, New York, and then a decision will be made regarding whether or not surgery is required.

As noted, Balor was wearing a sling on his arm after the match. He didn't wear the sling during his appearance on ABC's "Good Morning America" on Monday morning, however Meltzer noted that "there is a fear he will need surgery."

Hope this isn't true, but if so, it's about time to start typing that Rollins thread @TheGreatShowtime

I hate when these sites take what Meltzer speculates on his podcast as actual fact

 

[MenacingMonk]

He was favoring his arm after it. His arm hit the guardrail pretty hard.

Of course it had to be the powerbomb.

Where's Bret at?

 

[Golayitdown]

I'll never turn on Rollins
