NXT's Ridge Holland sustained an injury to his knee or another part of his leg during Wednesday night's episode.
Holland came out on top of his match with Danny Burch but the two got involved in a scrap after the win. Oney Lorcan also got into it with Holland and, while they went at it, hit Holland with a dive from the ring that caused him to go down awkwardly. The "X" symbol went up and officials came to his aid.
The announce team spoke to the seriousness of the injury after the commercial break that followed, with Vic Joseph stating it's never good to see a wrestler get injured and Wade Barrett claiming Holland will have top medical professionals taking care of him.
Holland did give a thumbs-up as he was being stretchered out but no word has come out as it pertains to the severity of the injury.
Bad Run For NXT Recently
The leg problem follows other key NXT injuries. Finn Balor and Kyle O'Reilly were both injured in their epic TakeOver 31 match over the weekend; Balor suffered a broken jaw but O'Reilly didn't come off as badly.
It also comes at a bad time for Holland, who was on the end of a recent push after coming in from NXT UK. He started a feud with Adam Cole at TakeOver and, on Wednesday, claimed someone paid him to attack Cole at the show.
Cole sent him a warning backstage but we have no idea if we'll be seeing Holland on TV again anytime soon, in the wake of his injury.
