Shoulder Injury Sidelines Pretty Deadly’s Elton Prince
In an action-packed match on SmackDown, Pretty Deadly’s Elton Prince suffered an unfortunate injury while facing off against Sheamus and Ridge Holland.
During the match, Prince appeared to favor his shoulder, signaling signs of discomfort. The injury became more evident as the evening progressed, as Prince was later seen with his arm in a sling during SmackDown LowDown.
According to reports from PWInsider, Prince has suffered a separated shoulder, with further details provided by Dave Meltzer and Bryan Alvarez. The injury involves Prince’s AC joint, placing him on WWE’s injured list as of Saturday morning.
Ridge Holland took to Twitter to shed light on the incident, revealing that Prince landed awkwardly after a pounce, resulting in the injury.
Despite the setback, Prince displayed remarkable resilience and determination. He courageously finished the match and secured a pinfall victory over Ridge Holland with a top rope leg drop. This victory adds to Pretty Deadly’s impressive record, standing at 5-1 on the main roster.
Notably, their sole loss came during a tag team title match against Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens on the June 20th SmackDown at the O2 Arena in London. Among their victories, four have been against The Brawling Brutes, with an additional win over The Street Profits on the June 23rd SmackDown.
As the WWE Universe rallies behind Elton Prince, we send our well-wishes for a speedy recovery. The injury serves as a reminder of the physical demands and risks that come with competing at the highest level of professional wrestling. We eagerly await Prince’s return to the ring, where he will undoubtedly continue to impress with his skills alongside Pretty Deadly.
