Kevin Owens is dealing with a legitimate rib injury.
During last night’s edition of Monday Night RAW during Sami Zayn’s match with Dominik Mysterio, Damian Priest and Rhea Ripley would attack Owens as a distraction, handing the win to Dominik Mysterio.
Shortly after, Owens would be shown in the trainers room being checked out, complaining of rib pain. Dave Meltzer reports on Wrestling Observer Radio that Owens’ injury is legitimate.
“It’s a fractured rib. He’s actually been working on it for a while, and it was just one of those things where they were waiting for a time to finish up whatever they were finishing up, — He’s gonna get a rest. I don’t know how long”
Dave Meltzer
We will have to wait and see if Owens will be forced to drop the WWE Undisputed Tag Team Titles in the near future or if his time away from the ring will only last a few short weeks.
