The referee threw up the “X” hand signal for the WWE Hall of Famer, which is the company’s internal code for a legitimate medical emergency.

While Theory and The Vision continued their post-match chaos, Mysterio was noticeably absent from the fight. Instead of defending himself, he was slumped on the apron, surrounded by trainers.

Bryan Alvarez has since confirmed the injury is real, noting that Mysterio was quietly escorted to the back while the cameras focused on a Natalya vignette to hide the scene.

For Mysterio, the timing is a disaster. With the Saudi Arabia shows only days away, a serious injury could force him off one of the biggest shows of the year. After spending most of 2025 dealing with an injury, Rey came back in late 2025 and suffered a minor injury recently as well.

• What CM Punk Said To AJ Styles After RAW Went Off The Air

In the main event of last night’s RAW, AJ Styles faced CM Punk for the World Heavyweight Championship. The match ended in a No Contest after Finn Balor interfered and assaulted Punk. After RAW went off the air, Styles thanked the fans for coming out and shared an emotional moment with Punk. Punk said the following to The Phenomenal One:

“When AJ Styles takes on Gunther, I just know that I’m going to be glued to the monitor watching, just like all of you. It has been a privilege to know you. It’s a privilege to call you a friend. It’s an honor to share the ring with you. I know Saturday is not it, but if it is, what a hell of a career.”

Both men hugged to end the night.
