WWE

A WWE NXT star has announced that he has suffered an injury that will keep him sidelined for up to two weeks.

On the February 7 edition of WWE NXT, Carmelo Hayes defeated JD McDonagh in a top contenders bout. During the match, Ilja Dragunov made his return to cause a distraction. After the bell, Dragunov attacked McDonagh, who escaped through the crowd.

In a tweet on Thursday, McDonagh announced that he has a detached retina in his right eye. Stating that he estimates a 10-14 day recovery time from this injury, the NXT star tweeted:

.@WWENXT fans attending Live Events in Tampa/Citrus Springs this weekend – Unfortunately, after a sneak attack on Tuesday, I’ve got a detached retina in my right eye.

Waiting on a treatment plan, but I estimate a 10-14 day recovery time.

10-14 days, @UNBESIEGBAR_ZAR. Count em.

WrestleTalk wishes JD McDonagh well in his recovery and will provide more information when it becomes available.
