CLEVELAND -- "No matter how serious the injury, one way or another I'll be ready to compete on Sunday."
-- John Cena in the locker room after Raw

During his match with Mr. Kennedy Monday night at Raw, WWE Champion John Cena was injured. As Randy Orton attacked Cena after the match, Jim Ross commented on The Champ's condition.

"It looked like Cena was injured earlier --- his shoulder -- against Mr. Kennedy," Ross said on the air.

If Cena was hurt, the injury was undoubtedly worsened by Orton's brutal attack, which included two RKOs and an assault with steel ring steps.

The extent of The Champ's injury is unknown. As a precaution, Cena headed to Birmingham, Ala., Monday night to be evaluated by Dr. James Andrews.
