Well, this sucks.
Arguably the best match of the evening at NXT TakeOver: Chicago just one week ago was Danny Burch and Oney Lorcan’s attempt at winning the tag team titles from the Undisputed ERA. They were unsuccessful in said attempt, but Lorcan was the clear MVP of the match, going all out the full way.
Unfortunately, it cost him.
Indeed, according to a report from PW Insider, Lorcan suffered a broken orbital bone and he’ll be undergoing surgery soon. That would be why he missed this week’s NXT television tapings.
The timing of this couldn’t be worse, considering he was just now getting a chance to shine. There’s no current timetable for his return but you can bet he’ll be out for a while. Here’s to hoping for a speedy recovery, and a return to the form that was getting him over before this injury.
