As previously reported, former WWE NXT Superstar Brady Booker, aka Bodhi Hayward, is featured on the hit CBS reality show, Survivor, in Season 51. During a recent episode, Brady had an incident where he accidentally sliced off part of his thumb while using a machete.

As a result of his injury, Brady needed to be seen by the show’s medical team, and he feared he’d be forced to leave the show. You can view the clip that CBS released of the incident below.

Despite fearing he’d be kicked off the show, Brady gets treated by the medical team and was informed by the doctor he’d be able to compete in the next challenge.
