WWE has provided an injury update on WWE “SmackDown” star Kevin Owens as he was injured during his match against Grayson Waller last Friday. The campaign announced via X (formerly Twitter) that Owens had broken his fourth and fifth metacarpal bones.
Both Waller and Austin Theory have been annoying Owens for a while now, and last week’s SmackDown was no different. Theory interfered in the match and stomped Owens’ right hand into the ring steps. After that, Waller targeted Owens’ hand throughout the match. While Owens got the win over Waller, the damage had already been done.
Logan Paul also announced on the December 1 episode that Owens will be part of the eight-man tournament that will determine the next contender for United States Champion. Waller and Theory were also on the list, along with Santos Escobar, Karrion Kross, Bobby Lashley and Dragon Lee. There is a name that is currently unknown. During the announcement, Owens also confronted Paul and ultimately punched Theory in the face.
Paul later joined the Owens-Waller match as a commentator. He took a photo of him, Waller and Theory next to the injured Owens – making fun of the whole situation. Waller later shared the photo on X with the caption, “Good Blokes.”
Even though things are looking bleak for Owens now, last night’s win was his second recent victory over his two current opponents. The week before, on the November 24 episode, Owens had teamed with LA Knight to defeat Waller and Theory.
