Naomi Dealing With Shoulder Injury

Naomi's return to the ring may have been held up due to a shoulder injury, according to her friend and former tag partner Ariane Andrew (FKA Cameron). 

Ariane was asked about her fellow Funkadactyl during a recent virtual signing for Golden Circle Collectibles and noted that Naomi is recovering from shoulder surgery, saying: 

"So, she (Trinity Fatu/Naomi) is recovering from shoulder surgery and you know, I want her to answer the question for herself (of what’s next for her). I know she's recovering from shoulder surgery. But, I'm super proud of her. That's my sister from another mister and I think you have to ask her for yourself how she's feeling. See if her shoulder is feeling good because she's recovering right now. Ask her that question". 

It has been almost one year since Naomi (along with Sasha Banks) walked out of WWE prior to a Raw taping. 

Andrew also claimed that there were plans for her and Naomi to revive their team and win the WWE Tag Team Titles last year after Andrew returned in the 2022 Women's Royal Rumble. 

"2022 for me was not one of my best years. You're gonna get tea...So I'm gonna give all the goodies...I've shared this but I think the more I can share, the better, so did the Royal Rumble...and then two days after, lost my dad, got called back to come back to WWE to get the Tag Team Titles with Naomi and then Thursday, they were (like), never mind, girl...Because Naomi and I were talking about gear," she said.

A recent report suggested that Naomi was set to sign the biggest-money deal of her career, prior to walking out of the company.
