Samoa Joe appeared on RAW this week out of nowhere to attack Seth Rollins. Rollins was coming to the ring to fight Triple H before being blindsided by the Samoa Joe in his debut. The show would end with Joe beating down Seth as Triple H walked away.
WWE announced that Seth Rollins injured his knee during the attack. It is unclear right now if it is a storyline injury or if it is legit.
Here is the video WWE posted of Seth walking out on crutches:

On WWE.com, it says that Seth re-injured his right knee and will be re-evaluated later on in the week.
****Update – Pro Wrestling Sheet, is reporting that the injury is legit and his Wrestlemania status is up in the air.
Update #2 – PWInsider.com and F4WOnline.com have confirmed that it is legit.
We are hoping this injury is only a storyline and a way to make Samoa Joe look like a badass. Would be devastating for Seth to have to miss Wrestlemania again. We will keep you updated when we know more.
