He will be getting X-rays in the near future to confirm the extent of the injury. The WrestleMania match against Rollins appeared to be an all-out brawl that witnessed Kevin Owens pulling off an incredible stunt.
Kevin Owens climbed onto the top of the Wrestlemania 36 banner kept behind the ramp and jumped off it to fall through the commentary table where Seth Rollins was lying.
It was considered to be the biggest stunt of this year’s WrestleMania. Perhaps that could be the exact point, when the former Universal Champion may have tweaked his ankle. There’s no update on how long he would be out wrestling due to this injury.

Initially, WWE keeping Kevin Owens off Monday Night Raw seemed illogical, going by the fact that he was the winner in the stretched feud against Seth Rollins who is getting a championship opportunity at Money In The Bank against Drew McIntyre in a singles contest.
Owens, The one who should be getting the opportunity is nowhere being seen. Since it’s an injury, he couldn’t capitalize on the big WrestleMania win.
