Pretty Deadly’s Elton Prince required medical attention during tonight’s SmackDown following a botched shooting star press from Nathan Frazer. The high-risk maneuver saw Frazer land awkwardly on Prince’s face during Fraxiom’s match against the established tag team, resulting in visible mouth bleeding and disorientation.
The incident triggered multiple in-ring irregularities:
- Prince failed to kick out of Frazer’s subsequent pin attempt despite the referee halting the count
- Partner Kit Wilson’s later pin on Frazer was prematurely counted as a three-count before Frazer kicked out
Medical staff attended to Prince ringside while Fraxiom secured the victory over Wilson. WWE has yet to disclose the severity of Prince’s injury, which occurred during the UK standout’s first major main roster feud since Pretty Deadly’s 2023 call-up from NXT.
