WWE NXT wrestlers Enzo Amore, Judas Devlin and Scott Dawson are currently sidelined with major injuries, PWInsider.com reports. Details on their respective injuries, as well as an update on Corey Graves, are as follows:



- Enzo Amore has been sidelined with a broken leg and will be out for approximately six months.

For those unfamiliar with Amore, his WWE.com bio states, "Dubbing himself "Jersey's finest," Enzo Amore reps the Garden State "like 225 on a barbell, 10 pounds of hair gel, steadily working on his swell." The realest guy in the room everywhere he goes, Enzo Amore is a straight shooter. He speaks his mind at all times, and at an incredible rate."

In recent months, Amore has been appearing as the eccentric mouthpiece and tag team partner of Colin Cassady.



- There has been fan speculation on the whereabouts of Judas Devlin, who has not appeared on WWE NXT since March. He remains under contract to the sports-entertainment organization, but is currently sidelined with a spinal injury.

According to WWE.com, Devlin "is one of the more deranged, oddly intellectual NXT Superstars." His bio states, "Standing at 6'5" and covered in colorful tattoos, this modern day Aristocrat uses his intellect to confuse and break down his opponents mentally before ever stepping foot in the ring."



- Scott Dawson, who recently disappeared from WWE NXT programming, is currently sidelined with a torn ACL.

For those unfamiliar with Dawson, his bio states, "Scott Dawson has been a survivor his entire life. Forced to grow up fast, Dawson overcame adversity and became the "man of the house" at an early age. Dawson cut his fighting teeth through bouncing in local clubs — developing his take-no-guff attitude and strong jaw. Now, Dawson is looking to take on some new challengers — in the squared-circle of NXT."

- The former Sterling James Keenan, Corey Graves, has returned to action after suffering a concussion last month.

If he's out with a spinal injury, I'd imagine he'll be in a backstage thing with Punk/Bryan.

- Ring of Honor stars Davey Richards and Eddie Edwards are at the WWE Performance Center for a week-long tryout. Richards will still be leaving for Japan in a week or so to work for the Pro Wrestling NOAH promotion but apparently they will return to the Performance Center for more work after that. Richards and Edwards are not signed but are reportedly being paid while they're in Orlando.

As noted, WWE NXT star Judas Devlin was brought in for RAW in Nashville this week and is backstage at tonight's SmackDown tapings in Atlanta. Devlin has fans on Twitter speculating that he may be debuting as a new member of The Wyatt Family after this tweet mentioning Sister Abigail:

"I feel the pain Sister Abigail..."

It was recently reported that Devlin was out of action with a spinal injury but earlier this week he tweeted that his back was feeling "taut" or tight, which could be a reference to those injury reports.

Devlin's look could easily fit with The Wyatt Family. For those who haven't seen him on NXT, here's a photo:

- While not under contract to WWE, word is that Eddie Edwards and Davey Richards will be appearing at the NXT TV tapings this Thursday night from Full Sail University. They haven't gone through the drug testing or the medical testing that WWE requires when signing talents but WWE is going to use them in NXT.

We noted before that Ring of Honor stars Davey Richards and Eddie Edwards were not offered a WWE deal after their tryout because Triple H felt they were built from the same mold as guys like Sami Callihan, Sami Zayn, Daniel Bryan or CM Punk, and WWE has enough "indie-looking" guys. A WWE source said, "Triple H feels we have enough Tyson Kidds."

With Richards and Edwards currently at the WWE Performance Center for a week-long tryout, many fans have been wondering what led to WWE bringing them back. Word is that William Regal went to Triple H and really fought for Richards and Edwards, explaining that they are really good in the ring and deserved to get another look.

Many feel that this week-long tryout may be a precursor to Edwards and Richards being signed to a short three-month deal. The duo may be finishing up with Ring of Honor at the December 14th Final Battle event.

- Regarding independent star Sami Callihan, who now goes by the name Solomon Crowe for WWE NXT, word is that he could end up on the main roster in a tag team. Sami signed with WWE this past summer and debuted in a loss to Xavier Woods in August.
