How did the injury occur?

Tonight's episode of Monday Night RAW saw The Revival take on SmackDown Live's Tag Team Champions - Xavier Woods and Big E - The New Day.

The match wouldn't go the distance, though, as an RKO outta nowhere laid out Big E and forced the referee to end the match, handing New Day the win via disqualification - but they won't be feeling like winners.

After The Viper entered the fray, the numbers game caught up with The New Day before Kofi Kingston provided an equalizer. The WWE Champion, though, wouldn't be of much assistance as the trio ended up on their backs.

Xavier Woods would come off worst, as Scott Dawson and Dash Wilder would go to work on Woods' leg, before delivering a sickening blow as Orton held Kofi Kingston in the perfect viewing spot to witness the horrific injury.
