While Seth Rollins' recent knee injury has been proven to be a work, or at least not as severe as we were all led to believe, it appears that one of Rollins' stablemates may now be dealing with their own injury issues after Night 1 of WWE's first-ever two-day SummerSlam.

The Visionary would wait until the show's final moments to make his presence felt, but for Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed, they were tasked with opening SummerSlam Saturday as they took on Roman Reigns and Jey Uso.

It wasn't a great day at the office for the Bron-Brons, with Uso getting the win for his team after pinning Bronson Reed, but it could well be that the faction has more to contend with than a simple PLE loss.

In fan footage from those in attendance at MetLife Stadium yesterday, social media has several clips of Bron Breakker being helped to the back after that match. With Reed at his side, Breakker is being assisted by what appears to be a member of WWE's medical team, with the second-generation Steiner seemingly unable to put any weight on his right foot.

Later in the night, after CM Punk had beaten Gunther to become the new World Heavyweight Champion, the purportedly-injured Seth Rollins came out and cashed in his Money in the Bank briefcase on Punk, with Seth the one to leave New Jersey with Raw's top men's prize in his possession.

As part of Rollins' show-closing celebrations, he was joined by Bron Breakker, Bronson Reed, and Paul Heyman, and Breakker's right knee was noticeably strapped up.

Now, as of this writing, there are no details on whether Bron is injured or not, and if so, to what extent. Here's hoping it's nothing too serious for the explosive young powerhouse, and that he doesn't have to miss too much - if any - ring time.

In terms of when Breakker may have gotten injured, purely speculation from your writer here, but Bron had a particularly gnarly landing on the announce desk at one point, with his knees looking like they took the brunt of that awkward landing.
