WWE provided a medical update concerning Ricky Saints, who sustained an injury during the May 27 NXT broadcast. During a North American Championship bout, Saints endured a Twisted Grin maneuver from Ethan Page.
The impact forced Saints’ throat directly into a steel chair’s crossbar. Medical professionals have since diagnosed the injury as a laryngeal contusion.
On this week’s NXT episode, WWE aired a segment detailing the injury. This included the display of a CT scan image, underscoring the severity of the damage.
WWE medical staff indicated that more information regarding Saints’ condition and his recovery schedule would be issued once available.
