Jacy Jayne Face Injury Confirmed On 7/5 Episode of WWE NXT
WWE NXT Superstar Jacy Jayne is on the shelf for the time being after undergoing surgery for a facial injury.
During the May 7, episode of WWE NXT, Jazmyn Nyx revealed that Jayne suffered a broken nose during her match against Thea Hail that took place at NXT Spring Breakin (Night Two). Photos of Jayne showed how bad the injury was and Nyx confirmed that Jayne had undergone surgery. Nyx vowed that she would do everything she could to get revenge on Hail for what happened.
Jayne and Hail faced off on the April 30, episode of WWE NXT. During the match, Hail kicked out of a cover and smacked Jayne's face in the process, causing the injury. Jayne, a former WWE NXT Women's Tag Team Champion, could be seen bleeding before she lost the match via submission. After that match, Jayne teased that she'd been injured by sharing a 2015 photo of John Cena after his nose was broken by Seth Rollins.
It's currently unclear when Jayne will be back given the nature of her injury. In Cena's case, he returned within weeks of his broken nose to face Rollins at SummerSlam. With that said, the 16-time WWE World Champion has always demonstrated a freakishly quick recovery time from injuries.
Whatever the timeframe for Jayne's recovery is, it's enough to keep her from plans for the NXT Women's North American Championship. On this week's NXT, the 12 names who will compete in qualifying matches were revealed, with neither Jayne nor Nyx making the list. Hail did make the top 12 rankings as the #2 seed.
