A WWE NXT match at a house show on March 20 from Lakeland, Florida was affected by multiple injuries to the point the bout ended up being waved off as a no contest.
An eight-man tag team match saw The Birth Right of Lexis King, Channing "Stacks" Lorenzo, Charlie Dempsey, and Uriah Connors take on WWE Speed Men's Champion Elio LeFleur, Kale Dixon, Tavion Heights, and Eli Knight. Reports from the NXT live event noted that Lexis King was rocked following a knee to the face, resulting in fears of a concussion. Elio LeFleur also sustained an arm injury during a turnbuckle spot, which resulted in the referee throwing up the 'X' to signal a legitimate injury. The match was then scrapped moments later.
Since the house show, Fightful Select has reported that Lexis King is "feeling okay" following the injury. How long he will be out of action is unknown.
There is no update on the status of Elio LeFleur. The former Aigle Blanc only signed with WWE in 2025, although he has been prominently featured on NXT, which has seen him challenge for the NXT North American Championship and win the WWE Speed Men's Title from Jasper Troy.
