An injury update on WWE NXT star Bobby Fish has surfaced as Dave Meltzer reported in the latest Daily Update on F4WOnline Fish suffered a jaw injury during a match at last week’s NXT TV tapings while working a match.
The injury happened when Velveteen Dream did a quebrada and it looked like his knee connected with Fish’s nose, but it was actually a jaw injury. As a result, Fish’s eye started to swell shut during the match. Currently, there’s no word yet on when he’ll return to in-ring action.
Fish is no longer slated to work upcoming EVOLVE events as he has been pulled from in-ring action. This is when news of him being injured first surfaced. He’ll just appear for the meet & greets at the EVOLVE 129 event on June 29 from Queens, and EVOLVE 130 on June 30 from Brooklyn. Here are the updated cards:
