WWE held an NXT live event on Thursday in Cocoa, FL at the Cocoa Armory and it appears that one Superstar may have suffered an injury in the main event.
Buddy Murphy may have suffered an ankle or leg injury at the show. He teamed up with Kassius Ohno but lost to Hideo Itami & The Velveteen Dream in a tag team match. Early in the match, Murphy went down after landing badly on his ankle.
This led to a trainer coming out and checking on Murphy for a moment. Referee Drake Wuertz came down a few minutes after the trainer and talked to Murphy, who eventually agreed to go to the backstage area to get checked out. This forced Ohno to work the match by himself.
