WWE NXT superstar Dante Chen returned to in-ring action this week after a serious injury layoff. Chen returned to his square circle at the NXT live event in Lakeland, Florida.
After being sidelined for over four months due to injury, Chen challenged OBA FEMI for the NXT Championship in his return match. Sharing his enthusiasm after receiving X, Chen tweeted:
“It’s been more than four months since my last match. I’m happy to be back in action. It’s not a better way to test myself than a big opportunity.”
Chen was amortized from WWE TV following the attack by Ethan Page on the January 14th edition of NXT, leading to surgery. He failed in a championship bid with the feminist. Thanks to the wrestling body slam, here are the results:
Line Dorado def. Anthony Luke
Chris Island def. BJ Ray
Izzi Dame (w/ niko vance) def. Ariana Grace
Charlie Dempsey (W/ Wren Sinclair) def. Edris Enov
