Update On Natalya’s Injury Status After Monday Night Raw

Hopefully it isn’t too bad. An injury is one of the worst things to see in wrestling as it can take anyone down in the blink of an eye. What makes matters worse is it can take some time to find out how bad things are, which can span quite the range. Unfortunately that was the case this week and now we have to wait on the details of just how bad things are. We do know a bit more though.

This week on Monday Night Raw, Natalya suffered some sort of a leg injury, which caused the Natalya/Tamina vs. Eva Marie/Doudrop match to be ended early. Natalya was helped to the back after the match ended. According to Wrestling Observer Radio, Natalya suffered an ankle injury rather than a knee injury. There is still no word on how bad the injury is or if Natalya will miss any ring time.

This is a messy situation. Check out the match with the injury and some healthy Natalya:

Natalya & Tamina vs. Eva Marie & Doudrop: Raw, July 26, 2021

Natalya vs. Rhea Ripley: Raw, July 12, 2021

Natalya vs. Shayna Baszler: SmackDown, April 16, 2021

Opinion: This is a situation where the details are going to matter most, as it could be anything from needing ice to needing surgery or any point in between. Hopefully Natalya is healthy, as she has been on a roll as of late and you never want to see someone get injured. This could also shake up the Women’s Tag Team Title scene, though unfortunately for all of the wrong reasons.

What will it mean if Natalya is out of action? Is she better on her own or in a team? Let us know in the comments below.
