Chelsea Green sustained an injury during her match on the most recent WWE SmackDown.
In a bout accompanied by Tiffany Stratton versus Fatal Influence (Fallon Henley & Lainey Reid), Green’s team was defeated, and she also suffered an injury during the contest.
Bryan Alvarez of the Wrestling Observer initially provided an update on Green’s condition, noting the specific injury details were still unconfirmed.
Subsequently, Green addressed her injury via social media, clarifying the situation.
Orbital Bone Fracture Diagnosed for Chelsea Green
Green shared an Instagram video to officially confirm her injury, disclosing that she was diagnosed with a broken orbital bone after seeking emergency medical attention. She expressed frustration and disappointment, citing a series of unfortunate events.
I did get injured last night. Stuff happens. It’s live television. It’s wrestling. It’s an occupational hazard. I ended up in the emergency room, and I have a broken orbital bone. It looks amazing, all things considered. It feels awful, but looks pretty amazing. I have no idea what that means for me.
Unlike past injuries, this situation feels markedly different. I’m feeling frustrated and upset. It seems like if I haven’t had bad luck, I’ve had none at all.
For now, I need to take some time to process and recover from the head trauma. From there, we’ll determine the next steps.
The injury’s impact on Green’s interim WWE Women’s Championship tenure remains unclear. She secured the title at WWE SummerSlam after triumphing over Charlotte Flair, Lash Legend, Jade Cargill, and Tiffany Stratton in a ladder match.
