Ricochet's Botched Match Finish and Injury Update Shake Up WWE Raw's Intercontinental Title Contender Scene

Ricochet's botched finish in the 4Way Intercontinental title #1 contender's match on Raw was reportedly due to him being rocked earlier in the match when his head hit the mat, resulting in a concussion. The planned simultaneous double pin was disrupted as Ricochet kicked out of the Ivar moonsault. It remains unclear if Ivar's post-match beatdown of The Miz was part of the original plan or an audible. Ricochet's health is now a concern, and he will need to be cleared by WWE medical before returning to the ring. The incident highlights the need for better handling of brain injuries in the wrestling industry.
