NXT’s Io Shirai was injured in the ring this week and it looks like it might be serious.



It was being reported that Shirai had hurt her knee during <a rel="noreferrer noopener" aria-label="this Wednesday’s episode of NXT (opens in a new tab)" href="https://api.wrestlingworld.co/results/wwe-nxt-results-jan-22-keith-lee-crowned-new-nxt-north-american-champion/" target="_blank">this Wednesday’s episode of NXT</a>. Shirai had a match with Toni Storm and was also involved in a brawl with NXT Champion Rhea Ripley and Bianca Belair.



It was believed that Shirai had tweaked her knee and she had
reportedly been sent for a “precautionary” MRI after the show.



Shirai seemingly confirmed the injury on social media,
tweeting a photo of a leg brace.

Now, Wrestling Observer Radio is reporting that, while the exact nature of Shirai’s injury has yet to be released, it is expected to keep her out of action for about two months.



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Update on Killer Kross&#8217; WWE Status</h3>



Killer Kross, who most recently wrestled for Impact, is said to be on the fast track for the WWE roster.



Kross had requested his release from Impact Wrestling in May of last year, allegedly over both financial and creative differences. Kross’s release request was granted last month and it was reported this month that he had met with Triple H.



Wrestling Observer Radio is now reporting that not only is Kross going to WWE, but he will be on the “fast track” when he gets there.



Dave Meltzer reported that Kross has pulled out of a
wrestling engagement in Australia and he is no longer taking bookings after
February 14. This could give us an indication as to when Kross will officially
become part of the WWE roster.



Kross being on the “fast track” probably means that he will either debut in the main roster or will get a strong push on NXT.



Kross is in a relationship with another former Impact wrestler, Scarlet Bordeaux, who signed with WWE back in November.
