Tonight episode of NXT featured Sean Legacy revealing that he is not medically cleared to compete and Elio LeFleur replacing him in the NXT Tag Team Championship #1 Contender’s tournament.
During the show, Interim NXT GM Robert Stone was seen talking to WWE Speed Men’s Champion LeFleur. Legacy and Eli Knight showed up with Legacy sporting crutches and told Stone that he has talked to medical and he is unable to compete in the NXT Tag titles contender tournament due to the injuries he sustained last week.
Stone told Knight that he will have to forfeit or find a new partner. LeFleur responded stating that he will be Knight’s new tag team partner until Legacy is healthy again. Stone agreed and stated that Knight and LeFleur will be facing off against The Culling next week in the tournament.
No word on how long Sean Legacy will be out of action at this time.
