Rusev was injured at last night’s WWE Main Event tapings in Phoenix, Arizona, during a match against Neville.
Rusev went down mid-match with an apparent arm injury. A correspondent initially speculated that he may have popped his right shoulder out of place. He was checked on by a trainer and the match was awarded to Neville by medical decision. The finish was described as very odd. After the match, Rusev chased the timekeeper, referee and trainer off, throwing a fit, as seen below. We’ll keep you updated on his status.
Word from backstage now is that Rusev is believed to have suffered a torn bicep, according to PWInsider. There is no confirmation on the severity of the injury but it was bad enough to stop the match.
Regarding the post-match tantrum that Rusev threw, that may have been done to make up some of the TV time they lost when the match had to be cut short.
