As reported on Wrestling-Edge, John Cena suffered an eye injury during his match with Bray Wyatt at a WWE live event in Madison, Wisconsin this past weekend.
The culprit is reportedly Bray Wyatt, braying Cena so hard it caused his eye to swell completely shut. To try and detract viewers from the seriousness and abrasiveness of the eye injury, Monday’s Raw cameras were supposed to shoot Cena from a distance.
Ironically, this isn’t the first time Cena has been poked in the eye by Wyatt – it also happened whilst he was performing under the Husky Harris gimmick in Nexus. Wrestling Observer reports at that time, Wyatt was sent back to development for the incident because he did not “apologize to Cena enough.” This time around, the punishment won’t be as severe, but he will likely be reprimanded backstage for the incident.
