Diamond Mine Says Roderick Strong 'Rolled His Ankle' While Training

[Liz]

Roderick Strong is currently injured according to the members of Diamond Mine.

Roderick Strong was supposed to team with Damon Kemp on tonight's episode of NXT 2.0 against the current NXT Tag Team Champions, Pretty Deadly. However, the match did not take place as scheduled. Damon Kemp, in a promo segment which can be seen above, informed Julius and Brutus Creed, as well as Ivy Nile, that Roderick rolled his ankle while training and therefore, could not compete.

The more tenured members of Diamond Mine were very upset by this news and said that Roderick better really be hurt otherwise, you tape it up and compete because that is the diamond mine way.

We will have more on the status of Roderick Strong as more information is made available.

Also tonight, it was revealed that Nikkita Lyons is injured and had to be replaced in the Women's Breakout Tournament. Learn more here.
