Over the weekend at the Royal Rumble, CM Punk suffered a torn tricep, which has resulted in him being unable to wrestle at WrestleMania. According to Fightful Select, Punk’s injury resulted in the Seth Rollins/Cody Rhodes segment being added to this week’s Monday Night Raw. The segment saw Rollins attempting to convince Rhodes to choose to face him at WrestleMania rather than Roman Reigns. In addition, there was no change to the planned Royal Rumble finish, as Rhodes was always planned to eliminate Punk to win.
