In terrible news for the Authority, their Yoda was injured during last night’s main-event angle. As you’ll recall, Seth Rollins called Jamie Noble, Joey Mercury and Kane down to apologize to them, and they teased not accepting, but in a heartwarming moment, the Authority family reunited in the face of an angry Beast. Then, Brock Lesnar killed them all.
During the segment, Noble was hurled into the crowd barrier like a rag doll. Unlike his partner Joey Mercury, he didn’t return for the later Brock Lesnar beatdown. It wasn’t shown on TV, but Noble was taken out of the arena on a stretcher…

Today, WWE.com confirmed that Noble suffered three broken ribs on Raw. Noble seems to be staying upbeat, despite the pain he must be in.
I would like to thank WWE staff and all the fans for nice messages. I have 3 broke ribs. Couldn't breathe at first.

Thankfully, while immensely painful, broken ribs aren’t really a career-threatening injury. Best of luck to Jamie Noble on a quick recovery.
