WWE fans were worried after seeing Humberto Carrillo taking a nasty landing on Raw last night.

The high flying superstar was in the middle of a hard hitting non-title match with United States Champion Sheamus when he hit a sunset flip powerbomb to the outside of the ring.

However, his knee looked to buckle and he appeared to land on the small of his back, with the Celtic Warrior landing on top of him.

There was a bit of confusion for people watching as the referee checked on both men, and it seemed like Sheamus was also checking on his opponent while they were on the ground.

Humberto looked to signal that he was hurt, and the referee called off the match in a smart move to ensure the safety of everyone involved.

As noted on Fightful Select, the finish to the match wasn’t what they company had originally planned, with the official having to call an audible.

However, PWInsider has since reported that Carrillo is ‘okay’ after the bout, so it doesn’t sound like the injury is too serious.

Big decisions having to be made on the fly is nothing new in pro wrestling, and former WWE veteran Mike Chioda recently opened up on almost having to end The Undertaker and Goldberg’s match in Saudi Arabia.

The referee exclusively told Metro.co.uk: ‘I almost had to call an audible during the Undertaker/Goldberg match at Saudi Arabia.

‘It went downhill after Goldberg got gashed open in the turnbuckle, got concussed. He was badly concussed and he got through the match, but barely. That’s when I was kinda worried because I thought, “oh my God!”

‘After the suplex, they almost broke their necks. “Oh my God, let’s get this done,” he was so concussed.

‘I was waiting to hear back from somebody to say, “should I call this match or not because he’s not doing good at all?” ‘

The two legends of the business battled in Saudi Arabia in 2019, and things took a bad turn when Goldberg hit the turnbuckle post hard and ended up ‘concussed’, with the pair struggling through the remainder of nine-minute match.

In one scary moment, he attempted his signature Jackhammer move and almost dropped ‘Taker on his head, which was inches away from breaking his opponent’s neck and could have been fatal.
