WWE Provides Update on Cody Rhodes’ Injuries Following Kevin Owens’ Brutal Attack

WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event delivered a memorable night of action, but the post-show chaos involving Cody Rhodes and Kevin Owens has left fans talking. While Cody retained his Undisputed WWE Championship in a controversial match against Owens, the night ended on a grim note as Owens unleashed a vicious package piledriver on Rhodes after the cameras stopped rolling.

Earlier today, WWE issued a storyline medical update on Rhodes’ condition following the attack. According to the official statement, Cody was kept overnight at a local hospital for observation due to cervical swelling. Medical examinations revealed no fractures, but the champion has been diagnosed with axial compression of the cervical spine as well as a cervical strain accompanied by spasms.

The update comes as fans continue to share footage of the chaotic aftermath, with EMTs rushing Rhodes out of the Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum on a stretcher. The brutal assault by Owens has intensified their already heated rivalry, leaving many wondering about the long-term implications for Rhodes’ reign as champion.

While Cody has faced countless challengers since capturing the Undisputed WWE Championship, Owens’ relentless attack outside of the ring may prove to be his toughest challenge yet. With no official timetable for Rhodes’ recovery, the focus now shifts to whether the champion will be ready for his next title defense—or if Owens will force WWE’s hand to crown a new titleholder.
