His performance, however brilliant, took a toll on him as he suffered severe knee injuries during the match, Fox News reported.

Marca also reported that the social media star had to leave the country in a wheelchair. He will be out of action for several months.

Paul himself took to Twitter to confirm the severity of his injuries.

While his performance was bold, it was ultimately all in vain as Reigns defended his titles. The Tribal Chief remains the Head of the Table going into the next big pay-per-view, Survivor Series.

Reigns is expected to remain champion until at least WrestleMania, where the WWE is trying to set up a match between him and his cousin, Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson.

Paul aims to dethrone Reigns

Logan and Jake Paul are no strangers to making bold challenges, Sports Brief earlier reported.

The brothers, who are both YouTubers turned boxers, have a reputation for calling out opponents and getting under their skin. They also don’t mind mixing it up with the best of them.

Logan fought Floyd Mayweather in an exhibition fight in June last year, but has since set his sights on a bigger challenge; Roman Reigns.

Reigns, the Tribal Chief, is the current Undisputed WWE Universal Champion and has been acknowledged as the top guy in WWE for some time.
