WWE announced Wednesday that the scheduled match between Seth Rollins and Riddle at Saturday’s SummerSlam pay-per-view has been postponed because of an injury suffered by Riddle.
Kayla Braxton said on Wednesday’s episode of WWE’s The Bump that Riddle suffered a brachial plexus injury, or stinger, due to Rollins’ attack on Raw, meaning he is medically disqualified and will not be able to compete at SummerSlam:
