More Details on The Injury Roman Reigns Suffered at WWE SummerSlam

Although Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns was injured while working with Jey Uso in a Tribal Combat Match at the WWE SummerSlam premium live event, he is not expected to miss time from television because of it.

The main event match from Ford Field in Detroit, Michigan, which served as the latest twist in The Bloodline story when Jimmy Uso cost his brother the bout, leading to Reigns retaining the title.

It looks like the injury happened when Jey hit an outside dive and landed on the back of Reigns, footage you can see below. Reigns is confirmed to be on tonight’s SmackDown for a Hail The Tribal Chief segment with Jimmy. 

In the latest edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer reported that “Reigns suffered either a hip or back injury from the top from Jey Uso about five minutes into his main event match.”

It’s unclear whether the injury will impact WWE’s plans for him at future PLEs, including next month’s Payback. We wish him a speedy recovery.
