Top WWE Star Injured

- Dave Meltzer is reporting that Randy Orton has a bad neck and was pulled from tonight’s house show cage match with Sheamus and replaced by John Cena. No word on if he is expected to miss any time or not.

Neck injuries are nothing to play with. He might have to take time off now before it gets worse. That's if it's anything mildly serious.

Randy Orton
was dealing with a sore neck and shoulder coming out of last night's WWE house show in Wildwood, New Jersey, where he faced Sheamus in a Lumberjack match with the Nexus.

WWE placed Orton in the six man tag earlier today in Newark, NJ so he could work a lighter match and rest. Orton vs. Sheamus in a Steel Cage had been the advertised main event. John Cena had been advertised for a six man tag against Nexus, but WWE switched Orton and Cena during the Newark event with an angle where Sheamus attacked Cena and Nexus attacked Jericho, leading to Orton and Daniel Bryan making the save.

Orton hardly tagged into the match and didn't nail the RKO on Michael Tarver after the bout, instead nailing the punt kick.

I am told the injury wasn't immediately being considered a serious concern, but Orton was likely to get checked out tomorrow in Boston to be sure.

This probably means he won't compete at NOC, and Cena or Miz will grab the strap....
