5-time WWE champion suffers a broken hand

A five-time WWE champion has suffered a broken hand. The injury occurred this week on NXT, unexpectedly, as former three-time 24/7 Champion and RAW Tag Team Champion Cedric Alexander took on Ethan Page.

The brawl started backstage after Page mocked Je'Von Evans, whose jaw he broke, in front of Alexander. Although they were scheduled to go head-to-head later in the night, given the situation, it moved up the card.

It was a pretty even match-up, as Ethan Page and Cedric Alexander got some good hits in. However, the match ended in Page's favor, who targeted Alexander's mouth throughout the match.

However, what happened after the match was very disturbing. Looking to make a point again, Page beat down Alexander, taking him outside the ring. He found a toolbox under the ring and closed it on Alexander's hand with a smash.

It seems that Alexander's hand has been broken. At this point, this is just speculation. WWE NXT will likely share more information on the situation soon. One thing is certain: Ethan Page is unhinged and must be stopped.
