Report: Natalya Out Of Action For Three Months
Natalya recently underwent surgery
Natalya is currently on the injured list in WWE, and is expected to be out of action for three months.
The former WWE SmackDown Women’s Champion suffered a dislocated nose earlier in November and recently underwent surgery, and a report from Dave Meltzer in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter suggests the ‘Diva of Doom’ will be out of action for at least three months if not longer, with WWE wanting Natalya to be fully healed before returning to the ring.
Natalya was written off TV by Ronda Rousey and Shayna Baszler, with Baszler kneeing Natalya in the face on the SmackDown taped October 28. The angle was shot to give Natalya time off to sort out her nose issues.
The longest-tenured member of the WWE women's roster, Natalya is also the winningest women’s wrestler in company history. A former SmackDown Women’s Champion and Divas Champion, she also held the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championships with Tamina.
Natalya notably suffered an ankle injury in the summer of 2021, but rushed back to the ring, returning after three weeks.
