Sol Ruca Suffers Major Injury
A big setback for the up-and-coming NXT star
Apr 28, 2023
WWE NXT star Sol Ruca is set for a lengthy spell on the sidelines, according to a new report.
Speaking on Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer noted that Ruca suffered a torn ACL.
"[Sol Ruca] tore her ACL. There's a lot of injuries there [NXT]. It's funny because a lot of people are blaming the strength training for the injuries, that they are doing heavy lifts as opposed to strengthening surrounding muscles to prevent injuries," he said.
Meltzer added: "When you are doing heavy stuff like that, the knees and the shoulders both can take a beating doing heavy one rep maxes or heavy, heavy weights, heavy squats, obviously, and they do that too, they have squat competitions there too. It sounds good but people have brought up to me there's a lot of injuries, especially on the women's side, there's a lot of women's injuries right now in NXT".
Other female NXT talents currently out of action include Arianna Grace, Amari Miller, Nikkita Lyons, Blair Davenport and Yulisa Leon.
NXT Anonymous tweeted a video of Sol being attacked in the Performance Center parking lot on Wednesday as a storyline excuse for her absence. Videos depicting attacks on Lyons and Wendy Choo were previously posted by NXT Anonymous.
