Injuries have been one of the most cruel aspects of pro wrestling and WWE is no exception. Amid this unpredictability, long-term creative planning is both an art and a gamble. WWE books its major storylines and matches months in advance. Yet no matter how carefully the roadmap is drawn, a single concussion or injury can bring the entire architecture crashing down.History shows that whenever a top star goes down with a serious injury, the company's best-laid plans always suffer. Well, fans have gotten several glimpses of it this year. As the company barrels toward the end of 2025, several prominent stars suffered unfortunate injuries. This has not only led them to be sidelined from television but has also revoked several plans.Let's take a look at four injuries that have ruined WWE's plans in the final months of 2025:#4. Jacob FatuOn the October 17 edition of SmackDown, Jacob Fatu was written off television in dramatic fashion. WWE showed that a mysterious backstage attack left him bloodied under a collapsed steel truss, but reports stated a real-life dental procedure to be the reason behind Fatu's hiatus. Regardless of what it is, the injury has dealt a huge blow to the company's major plans.The Samoan Werewolf was set to feud with Cody Rhodes for the Undisputed WWE Championship. Triple H had plans to push him as a top-tier star in the main event scene. Besides, Jacob Fatu was also expected to compete in the Men's WarGames Match. However, his injury poured cold water on those plans, prompting the creative team to pivot.#3. SheamusWWE's 2025 has been a maelstrom of chaos and Sheamus' untimely injury during The Last Time is Now tournament has been another big hit the company took this month. The Celtic Warrior was abruptly sidelined from television and pulled out of the contest after advancing to the second round, forcing an immediate rewrite of John Cena's farewell.The creative team seemingly had plans to push the veteran a little further in the tournament. However, Sheamus' unfortunate injury has left a hollow in the quarter finals. What was meant to be an exciting tournament suddenly became a patchwork of replacements. His exit not only robbed fans of a dream rematch but also rippled through the tournament's structure.#2. Seth RollinsSeth Rollins' catastrophic shoulder injury last month turned the company's meticulously crafted plans upside down. Fresh off his huge victory over Cody Rhodes at Crown Jewel, The Visionary was at the top of the mountain. With the World Heavyweight Championship on his shoulder, he was supposed to dominate alongside his faction for the months to come.However, Rollins' injury came like a bolt from the blue, washing away the company's long-term plans. This wasn't just a personal setback. It triggered a domino effect that forced WWE to vacate the World Heavyweight Title, accelerate Bron Breakker's betrayal, unravel The Vision's new chapter and overhaul plans for Survivor Series: WarGames. #1. WWE star PentaThis week on RAW, Penta sustained a shoulder injury during his quarter-final match against Solo Sikoa in the Last Time is Now tournament. His untimely injury has not only affected WWE but also ruined the company's cross-promotional plans with Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide. El Meido was slated for a December 20 AAA event in Guadalajara, reuniting with Rey Fenix to battle Dominik Mysterio and El Grande Americano.However, that is now a far-fetched scenario. The reunion of The Lucha Bros has been put on hold for an unforeseeable period, with plans for their match at Guerra de Titanes being potentially revoked. The company's major plans involving AAA are in shambles now. Penta's injury transcended the Stamford-based promotion, striking at the heart of a burgeoning global crossover.
