It was initially believed that Kevin Owens suffered an injury during the WWE Sunday Night Stunner house show in Madison, Wisconsin on November 13. This injury was later revealed to be an MCL sprain.
While speaking on Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer noted that WWE had huge plans for Kevin Owens prior to his injury.
I believe he was going to be in the WarGames match. He was supposed to be a surprise, so it adds up he’d be in the WarGames match. He’d be the last guy against The Bloodline in that match, because of him and Sami Zayn. If that were the case, this could cost him that. I think they may have to reshuffle that one and come up with a new guy on Friday.

This report would be later backed up by WrestleVotes and GiveMeSport.
We will have to wait and see how long Kevin Owens will be on the shelf, as fans will certainly miss him.
