WWE star shows off scary injury
A major WWE Superstar recently shared a graphic picture of his brutal injury. He took to social media to share an update following this week's NXT.
Osiris Griffin (formerly known as Joshua Black) debuted as part of the mysterious DarkState faction, which also includes Dion Lennox, Cutler James, and Saquon Shugars. The group made their first appearance at the Vengeance Day in February 2025, attacking NXT Champion Oba Femi.
DarkState officially revealed their mission statement in March, establishing themselves as a disruptive force tired of waiting for opportunities. The heel stable emphasized their desire to reshape the black-and-silver brand according to their will.
Taking to X (formerly Twitter), the erstwhile Joshua Black posted a graphic photo following a brutal finger injury that needed stitches. The WWE star declared his unwavering resolve and the unstoppable nature of his DarkState group.
"I'll get re-stitched every week if I have to. Nothing is gonna stop us 🤷🏽♂️ #WWENXT," he wrote.
