The intense rivalry between Brock Lesnar and Cody Rhodes reached a pivotal juncture at the illustrious WWE SummerSlam event, marking their third encounter. In an unexpected twist, Cody Rhodes emerged victorious once again, claiming a significant triumph over Lesnar. However, Lesnar’s valiant efforts came at a cost, as he grappled with an undisclosed injury during the course of the match.
The Wrestling Observer Newsletter shed light on the behind-the-scenes dynamics, revealing that Lesnar sustained the injury early on in his showdown with Cody Rhodes. The exact nature of the injury remains shrouded in mystery, leaving fans and wrestling enthusiasts to speculate on the extent of its impact.
Despite his injury, Lesnar demonstrated his unwavering commitment to the art of professional wrestling by engaging in a hard-fought contest that ultimately culminated in a clean victory for Cody Rhodes. This pivotal outcome not only solidified Rhodes’ dominance over his formidable adversary but also served as a turning point for Lesnar’s character, as he extended his hand to Rhodes in a sportsmanlike gesture, transitioning back into a babyface persona.
Lesnar, who was injured early in the match where he put over Cody Rhodes, was at one point advertised for stuff later this year. As of right now, he put Rhodes over clean, shook his hand, turned himself back babyface in doing so, and the plan is for him to return on the television building up the Royal Rumble and from there going to WrestleMania. Although I could see him returning for the November Saudi Arabia show even if today that isn’t the plan, or if there is an injury, he’s always there if they need a program.
The electrifying main event of WWE SummerSlam featured a high-stakes clash between Roman Reigns and Jey Uso, a confrontation that took an unexpected turn as the Tribal Chief found himself nursing an injury early into the bout. The details surrounding Reigns’ condition have now come to light, shedding light on the challenges he faced during the course of the match.
The Wrestling Observer Newsletter provided insights into the nature of Roman Reigns’ injury. It is believed that Reigns suffered either a hip or a back injury, a significant setback that occurred a mere five minutes into the intense showdown with Jey Uso.
Reigns suffered either a hip or back injury from the tope from Jey Uso about five minutes into his main event match. You could see the way he moved and walked that he was in pain, but to his credit, unless you were looking for it you probably didn’t see it.
