Current NXT Champion INJURED!

5 years ago by Wrestle Talk

It is being reported by those in attendance at the NXT live event in Indianapolis, Indiana, last night that Bobby Fish was injured during his match.

The injury seems to have occurred during a bout between the NXT Tag Team Champions The Undisputed Era and Heavy Machinery. Fish went down halfway through the match after tweaking his knee. Tag partner Kyle O’Reilly finished the majority of the match alone as Fish was being attended to by medical staff. However Bobby was able to be involved with the ending, coming via roll up after a distraction from Adam Cole.

After the match Fish was helped to the back by medical personnel. It is being reported by those there that Fish was seen after the show on crutches being assisted with his luggage, so it looks to be a legitimate injury for the champ.

Nothing has been confirmed about the extent of this injury but it’s likely we will hear more soon, once he has been evaluated. Hopefully the injury is not as bad as people are speculating it to be – The Undisputed Era is on a roll just now so it would be a shame to see Fish go down for any length of time.
