It’s been a rough year for Rhea Ripley as she had to vacate her WWE Women’s World Championship back in April due to injury. Ripley made her return to the ring at SummerSlam, and she’s been feuding with Liv Morgan ever since.
Unfortunately Rhea Ripley suffered a fractured orbital socket a few weeks ago, so she was written off TV when she was seemingly attacked by Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez during an episode of NXT.
PWInsider is reporting that Rhea Ripley’s injury is set to keep her sidelined for a while and there’s no timetable for her return to the ring. However, it was noted that the hope among people in WWE is that the injury isn’t as bad as they initially feared.
Originally the plan was for Rhea Ripley to have a big role at WrestleMania 41 in April of 2025, and the company is still hoping that the former champion will be ready for the Show of Shows.
Stay tuned for updates on Rhea’s status as they become available.
