We were all prepped up for a match between Nakamura and Dillinger this week. And then, WWE informed us that the match would no longer be taking place. Tye Dillinger has suffered a legitimate injury that has ruled him out of action for a while. He is in Birmingham, Alabama for an immediate surgery procedure.
