Raleigh, North Carolina – The latest episode of “SmackDown LowDown” left fans concerned as Elton Prince of Pretty Deadly was seen sporting a sling in a video released on the WWE YouTube channel. It appears that Prince’s injury was not just a part of the act, as PW Insider reports that he has suffered a separated shoulder.
The injury occurred during the tag team’s match against The Brawling Brutes on Friday Night SmackDown in Raleigh, North Carolina. A separated shoulder can take anywhere from two weeks to several months to heal, depending on the severity.
In response to speculations blaming Ridge Holland for the injury, Holland took to Twitter to defend himself. However, it seems that the injury was an unfortunate accident and not due to any fault of Holland.
This injury comes at a particularly difficult time for Pretty Deadly, as they have been receiving significant exposure on SmackDown recently. The tag team has been highly regarded by the higher-ups in WWE, and their absence due to Prince’s injury is undoubtedly a blow to their momentum.
However, there is a possibility that Pretty Deadly could still be utilized on television while Prince recovers from his injury. It remains to be seen how the creative team will handle their absence in upcoming episodes.
Fans and fellow wrestlers alike are wishing Elton Prince a swift recovery. The talented wrestler will be sorely missed in the ring, and everyone is hoping that he can return sooner rather than later.
Sources indicate that Prince’s rehabilitation process will commence immediately, and a timeline for his return to the ring will be determined based on his progress.
As the wrestling community waits for Prince’s recovery, the focus now shifts to how Pretty Deadly will adapt to this setback and continue to make their mark on SmackDown in the absence of one half of their dynamic duo.
