During the broadcast of the June 20 edition of WWE SmackDown, the commentary team announced that Elton Prince of Pretty Deadly has sustained an injury. While the specific nature of the issue was not disclosed, the news confirms Prince will be sidelined for an undetermined period, halting the team’s momentum. This comes shortly after Liv Morgan was also sidelined with an injury announced on WWE RAW.

The unfortunate update for Prince was followed by a perplexing on-screen moment for his tag team partner, Kit Wilson. Scheduled for a singles match against Aleister Black, Wilson was ambushed by R-Truth before the bout could begin. The attack prevented the match from ever starting.

R-Truth’s involvement is particularly baffling given his current main event storyline. The official preview for SmackDown centered on R-Truth’s scheduled match against Undisputed WWE Champion John Cena, a feud that began after Truth’s return at Money in the Bank. There was no advertised interaction between R-Truth and Pretty Deadly.

For Pretty Deadly, this marks another significant setback. The team, who debuted on the main roster in 2023, has struggled to find a consistent spot in the tag team division. The official show preview did not feature them in a match or segment, and this injury to Prince now complicates any immediate plans for the duo.
