Ja’ Von’s Take: I’m honestly not sure why they are delaying this match until next week, maybe due to time constraints. We can confirm that the shoulder injury is not legit due to the fact that he was wrestling on the most recent SmackDown Live Event (which you can check out the results of here). It’s also worth noting that a fan replied to WWE’s tweet announcing the injury saying he had spotted Sin Carain the gym. Additionally, he just recently appeared on Sheamus’ Celtic Warrior Workouts video (you can watch that here). This feud has felt forced to me and has Alberto Del Rio/Rey Mysterio from 2010 written all over it. As an avid viewer of NXT, I’m a huge fan of Almas and was glad to hear he was coming to SmackDown Live, but for his first feud on the main roster, this is all they could come up with for him? Like, really?! Creative could have done so much better than this.
