THE FOLLOWING REPORT CONTAINS **SPOILERS**! YOU’VE BEEN WARNED!!
At Tuesday night’s WWE SmackDown tapings in Bridgeport, CT, there was an angle done to write Randy Orton off television. During a backstage segment, The Shield did a “beat down” on Orton but by the time the camera was turned on, they had walked away, leaving him lying through a table. Later during the show, Matt Striker announced that Orton suffered a “separated shoulder and possible concussion” from The Shield’s attack.
We reported earlier that Randy Orton reportedly suffered a wrist (??) injury at the Sunday taping of the Tribute to the Troops special. He was held off of RAW Monday night, but was still being advertised for the SmackDown tapings.
More as we get it.
