That didn’t look good. WWE Women’s Tag Team Champion Natalya appeared to have suffered a leg injury during tonight’s episode of Raw, during a match with Eva Marie and Doudrop.
She and her partner, Tamina, were in the match, when Natalya appeared to suffer a right leg injury on either a roll-over or a foot stomp from Doudrop. Natalya tagged out and immediately had trouble putting weight on her right leg. The referee then apparently called an audible as Tamina took over, and after a distraction by Lilly on the big screen, hit a superkick on Eva for the pin to win.
After the match, a ringside medic immediately helped Natalya to the back. Tamina joined the medic in helping Natalya, who was still unable to put weight on her right leg.

Editor’s Opinion:
As soon as I saw her limping after the match, I knew that something was wrong. I hope that this isn’t a legit injury and that she is back very soon.
