During last night's episode of WWE NXT, Mercedes Martinez and Jake Atlas took on Tian Sha (Xia Li and Boa) in Tag Team action, with Li and Boa getting the win over Martinez and Atlas. The match ended via referee stoppage after Xia Li hit Martinez with a devastating roundhouse on the side of her head, and Martinez was checked on by the referee.
Despite there being no confirmation from the WWE or any officials, including commentary, Martinez was said to be knocked out cold by Xia Li’s roundhouse kick. As of this writing, neither has Martinez nor Li commented on Martinez's status or the apparent effect of Li's kick.
