• Update On RAW Champion’s Status After Injury
On last night’s RAW, United States Champion Sheamus lost 2 non-title matches.
He first lost to Ricochet, and then to Humberto Carrillo. He took a stiff kick from Carrillo during the second match and was bleeding heavily from the nose at one point.
It was speculated during RAW that Sheamus might have suffered a broken nose, but it wasn’t confirmed at that point.
PWInsider has now confirmed that Sheamus did suffer a broken nose. Regarding his in-ring status, he will only miss time in the ring if WWE Officials require him to do so and take some rest.
