At some point during the Fatal 4-Way match that headlined last week’s episode of Monday Night Raw, John Cena suffered an ankle injury. That’s the word from WWE, at least, who reported on as much today. What’s more, he apparently exacerbated said injury in training and now his status for Royal Rumble, where he was scheduled to wrestle in the men’s Royal Rumble match, is in question:

The explanation they give seems like it could be a work, and this is pro wrestling, but either way WWE is saying he could miss the show.
