Jacob Fatu in a walking boot after SummerSlam injury

He was injured doing a big dive in the Cody Rhodes vs. Solo Sikoa main event match.

During the main event of SummerSlam at Cleveland Browns Stadium in Cleveland, Ohio, Jacob Fatu was running wild on Cody Rhodes, helping Solo Sikoa in his quest to win the WWE championship. He went big with it too, putting Rhodes on the announcer’s table and doing a big dive from the top rope.

When he landed, he instantly grabbed at his leg. It was hard to tell if he was legitimately injured or just doing a great job selling but they weren’t shooting him much anymore and the remainder of the match — which featured the big return of Roman Reigns — played out with him still down outside the ring.

Now, video has emerged of Fatu wearing a walking boot after the event:

It would be a real shame if Fatu is forced to miss significant time. Hell, it would be a shame if he’s forced to miss any amount of time, considering he’s been an absolute force of nature in his brief time with WWE. The prospect of the new Bloodline feuding with Reigns with Fatu as Sikoa’s enforcer is as exciting as it gets.

Let’s hope we don’t have to wait too long for it.
