Travis Banks on his first injury in NXT UK and how he's doing physically now

Whilst it isn't clear whether or not Banks' second injury was real or not there's certainly no denying that the WWE Superstar was injured at the beginning of NXT UK as he took time off to recover from a dislocated shoulder.

I asked Banks what it was like to have to miss the start of the NXT UK tapings because of this injury and how he's feeling now.

Banks: "Yeah, that sucked man, that was like, I think, September of last year. I dislocated my shoulder so I was out for three months. But, I'm like a maniac when it comes to gym and recovery so I just rehabbed as hard as I could, and I actually came back faster than anticipated. But everything's okay now, no issues or anything like that."

I then asked Banks where he thought he'd be had he not gotten injured or does he not worry about that stuff too much.

Banks: "Nah, I don't worry about that man, I think everything happens for a reason and it gave me a little chance to reassess my goals and train a little bit harder and work on myself so I could come back stronger and be in a better position now"
