WWE Hopeful Rhea Ripley Will Return in Time for WrestleMania 41 During Injury Hiatus

Rhea Ripley had been one of the biggest draws for WWE television for the past couple of years but she has been dealing with injuries for a while as well. She is currently on the shelf due to injury but it appears her injury isn’t as severe as initially thought.

On the October 29 episode of NXT, Rhea Ripley appeared on the show to support Zaria and other NXT Superstars. Later, it was revealed that Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez had attacked Ripley, leaving her injured and requiring medical help.

WWE announced that Ripley suffered a fractured orbital socket from the attack. While this injury was part of the storyline, it is confirmed that Ripley is genuinely hurt and will be taking time off from WWE television to recover.

According to a report by PWInsider, Rhea Ripley’s injury isn’t as severe as first believed, but there is still no clear timeline for her return. WWE was planning for her to have a significant role at WrestleMania 41, so they are hoping she can make it in time.

Ripley suffered a fractured right orbital bone on the October 21 Raw but fans are certainly glad to know that The Eradicator’s injury isn’t as bad as initially thought. Therefore, we’ll have to wait and see if she can return in time for WrestleMania 41, as the Royal Rumble Premium Live Event seems like the most logical point for her comeback.
