Bron Breakker had a frightening moment on WWE RAW this week after a chair shot from Seth Rollins went wrong and left him with a legitimate head injury that quickly turned into a bloody situation.

The incident happened during a heated segment between Breakker and Seth Rollins following their issues that began at WrestleMania 42. Breakker opened the segment by boasting about his recent attack on Rollins and warning that he wasn’t done with “The Visionary,” setting the stage for a confrontation.

Moments later, Rollins’ music hit and he rushed the ring looking for revenge. What followed quickly took a dangerous turn when a chair shot meant for Breakker didn’t land the way it was supposed to.

Instead of striking across Breakker’s back, the top edge of the chair connected directly with the back of his head, immediately splitting him open. Fan-recorded footage circulating online captured the moment as blood began pouring from the cut.

Breakker rolled out of the ring and collapsed against the barricade while the injury was being evaluated. WWE medical staff rushed to him right away, using towels to try and control the bleeding as the situation unfolded ringside.

Despite how serious the moment looked, Breakker didn’t stay down. After being checked by medical personnel, he regrouped and returned to the action once the segment continued, finishing the planned brawl with Rollins.

The scary injury came just days after Breakker made a major impact at WrestleMania 42, where he returned during the Seth Rollins vs. GUNTHER match and attacked Rollins with a spear, costing him the match and restarting their rivalry in dramatic fashion.

As of now, there has been no official update on Breakker’s condition following the incident. With the severity of the cut visible in fan footage, many are waiting to hear whether the injury will affect his upcoming appearances or storyline plans.
