The past few weeks have been extremely busy for WWE's medical team, with a new report from The Wrestling Observer's Dave Meltzer stating that six different wrestlers suffered concussion-adjacent injuries in the space of less than a week.

Imperium's Alexander Wolfe is the first and most notable example. Bobby Fish inadvertently struck his chin with a kick intended for his chest in the World's Collide main event, knocking Wolfe out on impact. The former Sanity man had to be removed from the match entirely, forcing the remaining participants to call it on the fly, with stablemates Roderick Strong and Marcel Barthel also taking head knocks during the clash.

Then, on Monday Night Raw, Samoa Joe's night was ended as he suffered a concussion while teaming with Kevin Owens to face Tag Team Champions Seth Rollins and Buddy Murphy. It's also noted that Riddick Moss and Rey Mysterio also came close to getting knocked out on the show as well.

That's a large volume of similar injuries in a very short period of time, though there's currently no word on Mysterio, Strong, Barthel, and Moss. Wolfe should both be out for an indefinite period of time.
