At a WWE Live event on Sunday night in Florence, South Carolina, Tye Dillinger reportedly suffered an injury during his match with Shelton Benjamin.
A fan report (via Wrestling Observer) states that the referee made the "X" symbol with his arms after Dillinger fell from the top rope following a kick by Benjamin. Dillinger was helped to the back by a group of officials. Benjamin was awarded the match by count out.
Dillinger has been involved in backstage skits with R-Truth on recent episodes of SmackDown. The two formed a bond when R-Truth was drafted to SmackDown Live during this year's Superstar Shakeup.
Since then, they have been involved in a number of backstage skits, including Dillinger helped R-Truth with immigration and Truth giving Dillinger advice prior to the his match with Samoa Joe. Most recently, Truth was hoping to get on the SummerSlam card by beating Carmella. Instead, he lost to Shinsuke Nakamura, leaving both him and his best friend with no slot at SummerSlam.
SmackDown agent Brian "Road Dogg" James assured fans that the WWE Universe will see more of Dillinger and Truth moving forward.
