Having not wrestled for a month now, and pulled at the last minute from last week's NXT broadcast, Ember Moon has responded to recent rumours that she's dealing with some sort of injury issue.

Taking to Twitter, the former NXT Women's Champion clarified that injury is not the reason for her absence from NXT television.

Moon's last NXT match was in a losing effort against Dakota Kai on the 13 July episode of NXT. Last week saw the War Goddess announced as facing Sarray on that Wednesday's NXT offering, only for her to be replaced at extremely short notice by the aforementioned Kai - who would defeat Sarry in an excellent back-and-forth battle.

As it stands, Ember Moon has not been confirmed to appear on tomorrow night's NXT show.

Right now, that upcoming black and gold brand offering has announced Roderick Strong vs. NXT Cruiserweight Champion Kushida, Imperium vs. NXT Tag Team Champions MSK, and Duke Hudson vs. Carmelo Hayes in the second semi-final of the NXT Breakout Tournament.
