The ending of the match seemed anticlimactic and rushed for many. There could have been a reason for that, as revealed by photos provided on social media. Lesnar locked in a kimura lock and afterward Reigns could be heard telling Paul Heyman, “it’s out,” presumably meaning his shoulder.

Photos showed clearly showing major swelling on Reigns’ arms after Lesnar applied the Kimura Lock spot. On fan pointed out an apparent issue with Reigns’ arm after that kimura lock from Brock Lesnar.

Like I said. Roman Reigns got his shoulder split/separated/whatever in the Barricade spot. Lesnar also did something to his ribs not long after that. Both wrestled another 10+ minutes to that finish. Brock realizing that Roman’s arm was legit out.

It is not known whether Roman Reigns really did suffer a major injury. If he did pop that shoulder back into place and finish the match, then that’s why he’s the Head of the Table. Swelling does seem serious.

Reigns was able to raise both titles at the end of the night, but there was an obvious grimace on The Tribal Chief’s face. We’ll keep you updated on this ongoing story.
