As mentioned yesterday, a match between Asuka and Ruby Riot at an NXT show yesterday at the UK Download Festival in Leicestershire, England had to be stopped after Ruby Riot was busted open after having her head slammed into the steel steps. The ref put up the “X” and the match was stopped. Ruby Riot later said in a Facebook Live interview that she had to get 5 stitches on her head.
She was back in action today, though, defeating Aliyah at another NXT show at the UK Download Festival.
WWE also posted these photos of her injury:
