As we reported yesterday, during her match against Eva Marie and Doudrop on Raw Natalya suffered a possible injury and could not finish the match halfway through and post-match had to be helped to the back. The WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions still managed to pick up the win.
Natalya’s status was uncertain for a bit of time and many fans were concerned. In the latest Wrestling Observer Newsletter, it was noted that Natalya is only expected to be out of action for a few weeks. This will likely not cause WWE to strip them of the WWE women’s tag team titles after all.
“she got an MRI after the match. Evidently, the results were better than expected as we were told she’s only expected as we were told she only expected out for a few weeks, so they also may not strip her and Tamina of the Tag Titles which would be necessary if she needed surgery.”
There is no shortlist for challengers for the tag titles. Shotzi and Nox have made it clear they believe that they are first in line. Hopefully, Natalya will get back to action very soon, and her message to fans after that injury shows she has no plans to slow down.
