Injuries in Wrestling are nothing new. WWE has been presenting a series solely on the reports of injuries of its NXT Talents. After the grueling New Year’s Evil, some major injuries are there.

In this week’s injury report, WWE gave details on Finn Balor and Kyle O’Reilly. After last week’s successful title defense against O’Reilly, Pete Dunn, and NXT Tag Team Champions Oney Lorcan and Danny Burch attacked Finn Balor. However, Kyle and Undisputed Era soon saved Balor.

Later on, Balor returned the favor as he saved O’Reilly from Dunn, Lorcan, and Burch. But some damages were done already.
