As of this writing, it is not known when the injury occurred, but it had to be recent as he worked Monday’s RAW in a tag team match. He did not work Tuesday’s SmackDown TV tapings.
UPDATE: The Wrestling Observer confirmed that the injury is legitimate as he has tendonitis in his arm. Sheamus is not expected to be out of action for too long. It’s believed that he will remain on WWE television but won’t be working matches, similar to the role King Barrett has been doing in recent weeks.
There is also talk of another WWE star being injured, but that’s not confirmed.
