The Girl with the Shiniest Wizard has suffered another setback in her WWE career. The company has confirmed that the NXT competitor has suffered a torn ACL following an initial reveal on the in-universe NXT Injury Report. During a pre-TakeOver call, NXT head Triple H said that Nox has already gone through surgery to repair the injury and that she’s an “unbelievable strong” person and athlete.

This is Nox’s third serious knee injury in the last four years. She tore her ACL in both previous instances, including just before 2017’s Mae Young Classic and again during the 2018 tournament. Since returning to action, Nox has been gaining momentum on NXT TV, earning a title shot against current Women’s Champion Io Shirai this past July.
Everyone at WrestleZone wishes Tegan Nox the best of luck and hopes for another speedy recovery.
