R-Truth appeared to suffer an injury during his match against former tag team partner Damian Priest on WWE SmackDown.

The contest ended in a referee stoppage after Truth landed on the canvas following an attempted missile dropkick from the top rope.

According to Wrestling Inc., the referee checked on Truth immediately after the landing before calling off the match.

The broadcast provided no further updates on Truth's condition at the time of the report.

Referee Stoppage Reportedly Not the Planned Finish

According to False Finish on X, the referee stoppage was not the planned ending for the match.

No additional information was provided about the nature or severity of Truth's apparent injury.

Following the stoppage, Priest retrieved a chair from the timekeeper's area and appeared ready to attack his former friend.

Nathan Frazer and Axiom then entered the ring to intervene and prevent the situation from escalating.

The incident follows the breakdown of the partnership between Truth and Priest after their unsuccessful bid for the AAA Tag Team Championships.

The former partners had competed against the War Raiders on the September 11 edition of SmackDown.

After that defeat, Priest initially helped Truth to his feet before striking him with the South of Heaven and walking away.

The incident marked a turning point in their relationship and preceded their match on Friday's broadcast.
