Kairi Sane Injured By Nia Jax At WWE Raw Tapings?
A troubling report coming out of yesterday's WWE tapings.
Kairi Sane reportedly picked up another injury while working Nia Jax during a set of tapings at the Performance Center on Tuesday.
Jax and Sane were working a singles match for next week's episode of Raw when the Kabuki Warriors member suffered a cut to her head, according to a new report from Fightful. The duo were fighting outside the ring when this happened. Sane was busted open after being thrown into the ring steps, necessitating medical attention as the match was paused, Kairi's wound was sealed, and she was bandaged up, allowing her to finish.
The writeup states that Sane "indicated she was fine" afterwards.
Dave Meltzer has corroborated the report:-
This story comes just over a month after Jax was widely criticised for a sloppy Buckle Bomb that launched Sane's head and neck into the bottom turnbuckle on the 20 April episode of Raw, also in a singles match between the two. They are currently interacting as part of Jax's feud with Raw Women's Champion Asuka.
While it's always concerning to hear of a wrestler getting hurt, particularly so soon after another incident, at least it sounds like Sane is doing okay. There is currently no indication that she'll need to miss any time.
