BREAKING. Unexpected contestant injury on set rattles Way of the Warrior production.

You're reading it here first.

I can exclusively reveal that the production of the local reality show Way of the Warrior Mondays at 18:00 on M-Net Action (DStv 106) has been dealt a big setback after a contestant injury on set.

The Cape Town based show, produced by Colin Moss and Gathered Moss Productions, suffered an unexpected contestant injury in Woodstock where Way of the Warrior is filmed, but I've heard through the grapevine that the show is going on and is working around the challenge. Producers were initially shocked and very concerned when the incident took place - both for the contestant's sake, as well as for the way it's shaking up the production plan.

Contestants in the Muaythai inspired production were warned ahead of time that the dangerous elements of the martial arts infused show will be present during the show as they fight to stay in the game. According to sources, the injury has put a spoke in the wheel of the production, but Way of the Warrior is forging ahead. The unplanned incident and unexpected injury on set will now most likely up the ante for viewers regarding the surprise factor - as well as provide a real-life dramatic moments that the producers will incorporate into upcoming episodes.
