"An update has emerged on a Triple A star signed to a WWE contract following an injury that was recently suffered ahead of an NXT match. As previously reported, El Ejo del Vikingo was set to defend the Triple A Latin American Championship against Ech Prosper on this week's WWE NXT, only to suffer an injury during rehearsals. PWInsider has now provided an update on the star's status, confirming that Vikingo suffered a knee injury, with WWE awaiting MRI results to establish its severity. As the report notes, Vikingo has been out of action previously for an extended period due to knee issues. Promotion for the NXT match was removed by the WWE social media team, with a storyline reason being provided through a backstage attack on Vikingo at the hands of a lead pipe-wielding Keanu Carver. Prosper had beaten Carver on the June 30 episode of the Tuesday night show. Prosper would state that he attacked Vikingo as Prosper had robbed him of a title shot. Although continuing to feature on Triple A television, Vikingo is notable for being directly signed to a WWE contract."
