Finn Balor was injured during his Summerslam match against Seth Rollins, PWInsider.com has confirmed.

Sources indicate that Balor was sporting his right arm in a sling following the PPV. There is concern the injury is serious and could require surgery.

In watching back the bout, Balor was grabbing briefly at his right shoulder after being nailed with a small package driver and did not raise the arm (which was holding the Universal championship) after the match.

We are told Balor will be getting examined tomorrow and once WWE has a determination on exactly how serious the injury is, they will go from there. More as we get it.

Balor is slated to appear on Good Morning America tomorrow at 8 AM Eastern.

With that and the rumours of suspensions incoming, it could be pretty shitty for both rosters.

omg NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[Fignuts]

Are we sure that pic isn't from 2012?

[Fignuts]

Also, no one is gonna wanna work with Seth anymore, if this was his fault.

[Ruien]

Has Seth injured others?

This may save Raw! Let Rollins rise to stardom damnit.

[slik]

I like Rollins but yeah...STING got injured during their Night of Champions match last year.

[slik]

Seth broke Cena's nose too.

[slik]

Fuck, let Rollins be the guy the beat Lesnar @WWE

[Ruien]

Forgot about Sting.

[Ruien]

Fuck, let Rollins be the guy the beat Lesnar @WWE

YES PLEASE

[slik]

Can't tell if he is injured or not...all the comments are about how much people hate the title design

No sling. We might be OK?

[slik]

Good!

[Volare]

Finn does make ANY title look good!

[Black Widow]

His troubles ani't over still has keep watch for the Hamburglar.

[#BROKEN Hasney]

Big Meltz is claiming its legit and may require surgery.

[evanbrown]

Finn Balor is a vanilla midget. Roman Reigns should be given the title.

[Emperor Smeat]

Might be time for the WWE to consider a peace offering to Papa Shango to end this injury curse. Right when it looked like they'd be back to normal, the injury (and Wellness) bug strikes again.

[#BROKEN Hasney]

This was from a barricade bomb so maybe Seth should retire that shifty looking move.

[evanbrown]

Only wrestlers from USA #1 should be made Universal Champion. Wooooooooooooo!

[GD]

Just received a notification from the WWE mobile app. He's hurting for certain.

Be bad if they have to strip him of the title. Not a good start for the Universal Championship. Should just have Bobby Lashley be awarded the title so he can throw it on the ground.

[VSG]

Crown an interim champion with a new belt which will be merged with the Universal title when Finn is back. Easy way to get rid of wrinkly belt too.

[Blue Demon]

They're stripping him of the belt

Once again Bret was right.

H: I am a really big fan of Seth’s. I think he’s one of the best young wrestlers in the world today. That’s why I think I made such a strong criticism. It’s meant to make him think. It’s not a personal attack. It’s a professional criticism of his work a few months ago. I think there’s a little bit of an onus here not to own up to what he did. You can watch it back. I watched it back just a minute ago. He clearly knees John Cena as hard as he can in the face. It’s not John Cena’s fault. If you watch it it’s not John Cena leaning in it’s Seth Rollins’ pulling his head down and kneeing him as hard as he can in the face. It’s bullshit. Everything I said is true. If he’s got hurt feelings, well, it’s better to have hurt feelings than a broken, shattered face. My whole gripe with that kind of stuff is that you can’t get injured. The wrestler can’t afford getting hurt. There’s a huge onus on the two wrestlers to protect each other at all costs. If you can’t protect the guy you are working with, if you can’t be more careful than that, then you need to go back to the drawing board. It’s a good criticism. All of those agents in WWE, I don’t know who they are that are schooling these guys and telling them what they are doing right and what they are doing wrong. They should all be chastised for not speaking up too. Including Vince. Including Triple H. What he did was totally wrong. Totally unprofessional. It’s true and it’s not a personal attack. It just means, “Be more careful.” You can’t be hurting guys like that all the time.

Bret being a bitter old man. Who would've thought.

[Damian Rey 2.0]

He still makes a valid point, bitter or not. In about a year, Rollins has broken Cena's nose, retired Sting, and now injured Balor. That's a lot of guys in 12 months, especially considering he was out from November until recently.

[thecc]

He's also gone 11 years without ever hurting anyone. Wasn't the sting one also because sting didn't brace himself properly.

[Fignuts]

Maybe, but I could see Sting saying it was his fault even if it really wasn't, just because he's all class.

[Mr. Nerfect]

Silver-living is that Finn Balor gets to be white-hot when he returns. Undefeated first Universal Champion. There's a major PPV match right there. If he's ready in time for WrestleMania, that could be the Big Red match at Mania next year.

he also fucked up his own knee.

A part of me is starting to wonder if Bret Hart's comments are in Seth Rollins head?

Since Seth is Triple H's "boy" and everything, Bret has been quite vocal about Seth Rollins injuring Cena in the ring that one time.

[Jordan]

It wasn't Seth's fault that Finn got injured. It's really just that move in particular in an unpredictable bump. Labrum tears are sporadic and odd, that didn't look to me like it should have tore his labrum but you can't say for sure.

[Simple Fan]

It may just be the lighter shade but those barricades look higher than before to me. I don't know if that had anything to do with it or not but it's definitely a difficult move to take. I'd rather see him curb stomping people.

[The MAC]

Doing an unpredictable move is the very definition of being reckless and needlessly endangering the other guy you are working with.

Seth said " bret hurt my feelings". Seth hurt Cena, Sting, Finn, and himself. In the end HHH is a 4/10 wrestler so whatever in-ring teachings he has done with seth is definitely showing :D

[Maluco]

Fact is, noone else is injuring guys as regularly as he is. There are other wrestlers who get through entire careers without directly injuring their opponents.

The question is def out there now, and I think he has to sit down and make some changes to his moveset at the very least
