Finn Balor is reported to have suffered an injury during last night’s “Superstar Shakeup” episode of RAW, according to PWInsider.
The injury was revealed to be a concussion and occurred from a stiff forearm strike by Jinder Mahal during their match. It is currently speculated Balor was legit briefly knocked out by the strike and then regained consciousness after his face slammed on the mat from the fall.
At the moment, it is unknown how long Finn Balor will be out and WWE has not made any announcement regarding his status.
You can see a video of the match below as well as a slow motion GIF of the moment the injury likely occurred.
The way Finn's body flails around and how he hits, plus the mat burn on his forehead/nose afterwards, this seems like a legit knock out. pic.twitter.com/acbSdQW7Ij
