As noted, WWE Universal Champion Finn Balor was injured during his match with Seth Rollins at SummerSlam and suffered a dislocated shoulder when he was power bombed into the barricade at ringside by Rollins. Balor was forced to relinquish the WWE Universal Title on Monday’s episode of RAW.
SmackDown General Manager Daniel Bryan, who had to relinquish the WWE Title in 2014 and the Intercontinental Title in 2015 due to injuries, posted the following on Balor:
“Regardless of brand, my heart goes out to @FinnBalor. He worked so hard for so long and should’ve had these kinds of opportunities long ago.”

Balor will go under further evaluation to determine the extent of his injury.
