Kevin Owens Injured: WWE Updates and Potential Replacements

WWE has announced that Kevin Owens is injured following his match with Grayson Waller on Friday Night SmackDown. While WWE rarely announces injuries, the timing of this announcement is interesting as Owens was previously announced for the United States championship number one contender tournament but is not in the line-up for the first round of matches next week, which coincides with CM Punk's return to the blue brand. Speculation arises as to whether Owens will actually miss the show or if it is part of a storyline.
