28-year-old WWE star out with a broken wrist - Reports

The last few months have been unfortunate for WWE when it comes to injuries. Another name that was recently added to the list of sidelined stars is Jakara Jackson. A new report has now provided more details about the NXT star's injury.

Jakara Jackson was slated to face Arianna Grace in the first round of the NXT Women’s Breakout Tournament this Tuesday on NXT. However, it was announced on Monday that the 28-year-old is not medically cleared to compete and thus will be removed from the tournament. Jackson was replaced by Brinley Reece, who went on to lose to Arianna Grace in her TV debut match.

Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter provided an update on the situation. The veteran wrestling journalist reported that Jackson is believed to have suffered a broken wrist.

"Jakara Jackson suffered an injury, believed to be a broken wrist, and that eliminated her from the NXT breakout tournament," Meltzer reported.

In the other match of the tournament, Karmen Petrovic advanced after getting a win over Jaida Parker. She will now face Lola Vice in the semifinals, while Arianna Grace will take on Kelani Jordan.
