Shield member Roman Reigns has a huge future ahead of him in the WWE as he is expected to eventually be one of the top babyfaces in the company, but he suffered an injury scare Thursday during a match with Randy Orton at a live event on the WWE's European Tour, and he may have a concussion
Updated Plans For Batista And Brock Lesnar
According to Wrestlngheadlines.com, during a live event in Glasgow, Reigns was banged up in a botched spot that took place during a Steel Cage match with Orton.
Reigns was banged up and looked pretty out of it during his match with Orton after he attempted to hit his spear on Orton while charging out of the corner in a spot that saw Orton try to reverse his momentum into a powerslam, however the spot was ill-timed and Reigns and Orton ended up butting heads.

A fan in attendance at the event videotaped the match, and the collision can be seen at 4:40 into the video:
Reigns finished the match despite receiving a nasty cut on top of his eye and appearing to be out of it the rest of the way. There was some fear that he suffered a concussion after the collision, but reports indicate that fear subsided in the following 12 hours.
Reigns took to Twitter following the incident and posted a picture of the injury:

Reigns should be good to go from here on out as the injury wasn't dubbed to be too serious, however it remains to be seen if The Shield member will be kept to limited appearances for the rest of the tour or if he will be thrust back into action.
Reigns will team up with fellow Shield members Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose in a six-man tag team match at Payback on June 1 at the Allstate Arena in Chicago to take on Evolution (Triple H, Orton and Batista) in what could prove to be an elimination tag match.
