It appears that NXT UK stars Travis Banks and Sam Gradwell have suffered injuries.

WWE's United Kingdom Division suffered two losses as both Banks and Gradwell recently announced that they've been caught with the injury bug and will not be able to participate in upcoming events. Banks wrote a message on twitter addressing the rumors on his injury:

"Hello everyone," Banks said in his message. "As probably a surprise to no one now. About a month ago I suffered a dislocated shoulder. Initially I thought I would be clear to wrestle sooner rather than later. However, that hasn't been the case and unfortunately, I still don't have a return date to give everyone. At the moment shows and dates I have been advertised for will have to be postponed until I'm cleared. I will try [to] keep you all updated as best as possible. Many blessings."

Banks made it to the finals of the WWE United Kingdom Championship Tournament this year before losing to Zack Gibson.

Gradwell also posted several pictures on his twitter of him lying on a doctor’s table and having his knee elevated. According to the NXT: UK star, an old ACL injury resurfaced, one that he surgically repaired six years ago. Here’s the twitter message below:

"During my WWE physical this weekend, the doctors found a suspected re-injury or 'loosening' of my left ACL that was reconstructed in 2012," Gradwell wrote. "Currently awaiting an MRI to assess damage (hopefully minimal) but in the meantime, I am unfortunately not cleared to wrestle. Apologies to those who were looking forward to seeing me wrestle over the coming weeks, hopefully, it's nothing major and I'll be back ASAP!"

Gradwell participated in the NXT: UK television tapings on July 28th and 29th, but Banks was absent from the shows. The air date of NXT:UK has yet to be announced.
