One fan speculated that this wasn’t a new injury as he saw the 35-year-old WWE star wearing a knee brace.
i’m pretty sure i saw him favoring one of his knees after a match with la knight at a house show 2 weeks ago

He's been wearing a large brace on his knee ever since he first came back. Something is certainly wrong.
