Mark Andrews, who is part of WWE’s United Kingdom roster, was injured during a match at an NXT show at the Download Festival in Derby, England. However, the injury was apparently not serious.
In an eight man tag team match (Mark Andrews, Aleister Black, Drew McIntyre, Roderick Strong vs. Bobby Roode, Pete Dunne, The Authors of Pain), Andrews was clotheslined by one of the Authors of Pain and flipped and landed awkwardly on his neck. The match was stopped and he had to be taken out on a stretcher.
