Dynamite saw the War Dog take on Komander in a fairly one-sided match, putting the masked man away in barely five minutes. The end of the bout and post-match saw Wardlow favouring his right knee, which had some people wondering if the powerhouse was indeed injured.

Per the Wrestling Observer, Wardlow's selling of his knee from some Komander dropkicks and being run into the steel steps was just that; selling. It was the match-ending powerbomb where things seemed to go array, with it appearing Wardlow's knee gave out as he could be heard saying "f**k". Following the contest, the Undisputed Kingdom man was limping and clearly showing his frustration.

Straight from Wardlow himself, the 36-year-old said his knee is "just fine".

Despite this, Bryan Alvarez noted on the latest Wrestling Observer Radio that Wardlow is "not fine".

As Alvarez detailed:

"Wardlow says he is fine. I have been told that it's not fine. What I was told is that he’s getting checked out tomorrow. They think it’s possibly a torn meniscus, but that he dodged a bullet and it wasn’t much worse and he’ll probably be alright. But he definitely is not fine. Something went wrong."

Expect more on this as it develops.
