WWE News: Shinsuke Nakamura injured at NXT live event

Nakamura after signing with WWE NXT

The internet is still buzzing over the WWE debut of former IWGP Heavyweight Champion, Shinsuke Nakamura in NXT. Several wrestling fanatics are considering his debut match against former NXT Champion, Sami Zayn, as one of the best wrestling matches in recent memory.

As a part of the NXT roster, Nakamura was recently performing at one of the live events.

Unfortunately for him, Nakamura suffered a cut to the back of his head while wrestling at NXT’s Live event in Columbia, South Carolina. He got the cut after taking a possibly misplaced Moonsault by Manny Andrade.

The medical staff came down to check on Nakamura and assess his condition. The cut, though, did not prevent the King of Strong Style from winning his match against Andrade.

Wrestlinginc.com reports that WWE noted on Instagram that Nakamura received 4 staples in his head due to the cut. Nakamura too took to Twitter and commented that he is fit and fine.
