WWE Star Injured At Live Event Tonight?

Wrestling Inc. reader David Stevenson sent word that Simon Gotch appeared to have suffered an injury at tonight's WWE live event in Jacksonville, FL.
During the main event, The New Day defended the WWE Tag Team Championship against The Lucha Dragons and The Vaudevillians in a triple threat match. Towards the end of the match, Simon Gotch took a stiff kick to the face. The referee looked concerned as Gotch tried to roll out of the ring, but stumbled and fell outside the ring. Gotch didn't get back up for the rest of the match.
As soon as the match was over, the referee threw up the "X" sign and Gotch was helped to the back by Aiden English and a doctor.
