Aleister Black suffered a broken nose in his match with Buddy Murphy
Aleister Black took on Buddy Murphy last night after the former Cruiserweight Champion stepped up to challenge The Dutch Destroyer after weeks of him waiting for someone to kick on his door. The two former NXT stars could easily have stolen the show with their match, but an injury in the opening stages meant that Aleister Black was forced to continue with a broken nose.

The spot looked as though it was a botch when Murphy looked to trip Black on the apron and send him into the post. Black was sent forward face first and didn't look as though he got his hands up which is what caused the injury.
He then rolled to the floor on the outside and his nose began to bleed heavily before close-ups showed that his nose was definitely broken. The former NXT Champion sucked up the pain and continued the match where he picked up the win over Murphy with a Black Mass out of nowhere, but after only coming back from a knee injury a few weeks ago, this would have been the last thing Black would have wanted.
