NXT star shares injury update and return timeline
NXT star Shiloh Hill shared an update on his injury and potential return timeline.
On this week’s edition of NXT, Hill revealed via a video message that he suffered a fractured maxilla in his match against Tristen Angels last month. Hill later posted on X that the reduced swelling and location of the fracture might influence a sooner in-ring return as instructed by the doctor who evaluated the injury.
“thank you all for all the get well wishes. recently got some good news which is that because of the placement of the fracture and how quickly the swelling has gone down. i may be back in the ring a little sooner than the Doctor’s initially thought. that being said, don’t miss NXT Live in Melbourne tomorrow and Jacksonville on Saturday,” posted Hill.
Prior to NXT, Hill was a participant in LFG (Legends & Future Greats) Season One where he was mentored by The Undertaker. Despite finishing the first season as runner up, he won the second season, and eventually joined the NXT roster in December 2025.
