Following last night’s edition of Monday Night RAW, WWE.com posted the following update on Randy Orton…
WWE.com has learned that Randy Orton was injured following an attack at the hands of The Authority, during which he suffered two consecutive Curb Stomps from Seth Rollins; one atop the announce table and another on the steel steps. The extent of the former WWE World Heavyweight Champion’s injuries is unknown at this time, however, as all medical evaluations of The Apex Predator were done behind closed doors. WWE.com was unable to get official comment from medical staff as to the nature of Orton’s injuries, though locker room speculation is that The Viper had suffered a concussion.
As previously reported, Orton was pulled from the European tour (which starts this week) because he will be filming The Condemned 2: Desert Prey for WWE Studios and Lionsgate. The angle last night was to write him off TV until he completes work on the film.
