Thea Hail Refutes Reports of Torn ACL Injury
Reports that Thea Hail is out with a torn ACL injury are "just not true" according to the WWE NXT Superstar herself.
This week, it was reported that Hail is dealing with the injury, and that blame was being put on "counterproductive" workouts at the Performance Center. The report stated that these workouts are putting unnecessary stress on certain parts of the anatomy, with talent being unable to fully cool-down from the workout before being expected to wrestle. In a tweet however, Hail refuted the claim that she is injured.
While Hail is not dealing with an injury, several of the promising names from the gold brand are currently out of action. At this week's Spring Breakin' episode, Indi Hartwell suffered some kind of leg injury which resulted in her being momentarily taken out of the NXT Women's Championship match. While Hartwell was allowed to return, the Australian Superstar (who has since been drafted to Raw) has been seen wearing a protective walking boot.
Sol Ruca was written off of TV during Spring Breakin' with an attack in the WWE Performance Center parking lot, a dangerous place judging by the multiple attacks in recent months. Ruca is reportedly out of action with an ACL injury, though it is unclear when exactly this injury was suffered. Following Spring Breakin' it was reported that Grayson Waller suffered an undisclosed injury during his match with NXT Champion Carmelo Hayes. The pair reportedly rushed to the finish of the match, which saw Hayes retain his title.
