Finn Balor defeated Seth Rollins to become the first ever WWE Universal Champion after a solid match at Summerslam. The match was overshadowed by a lot of negativity surrounding the new Universal Title design as the crowd (and fans on twitter) ripped it. It looks like Finn might have sustained an injury during this match as well.
According to PWInsider, Finn was seen with his right arm in a sling after the match. Their report states that Balor is getting evaluated today to see how serious the injury might be.
After Balor won the title, some fans noticed that he didn’t raise it with his right arm. Some fans are also saying they saw him in pain after he was put into the guard rail from Seth outside the ring.
Good news though is that Finn was on Good Morning American this morning WITHOUT the sling (and he looked to be in good spirits):

This doesn’t necessarily clear him of an injury though as he could have taken it off for the interview but it is a good sign none the less.
