Everyone knows that wrestling is not ballet, and unfortunately injuries do happen from time to time. This week WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions Natalya & Tamina took on Eva Marie and Doudrop in a non-title match, and during the bout Natalya suffered an ankle injury.

After suffering the injury Natalya tagged out and did not return to the match. She then had to helped to the back.
Dave Meltzer noted on Wrestling Observer Radio that Natalya rolled her right ankle and twisted it. The extent of the injury is unknown, but it’s thought to be serious since Natalya couldn’t walk out on her own.
Meltzer also noted that if Natalya needs surgery she could be out of action for a while. Stay tuned for updates.
