Update On Natalya WWE Return Following Ankle Surgery

Here’s the latest update on WWE Women’s Tag Team Champion Natalya after she recently underwent ankle surgery.

As reported in the latest Wrestling Observer Newsletter, the injury wasn’t an ankle break, but a ligament that snapped in half.

Natalya had surgery which was said to be “very progressive” and from someone who specializes in ankle surgery.

She had a simulated ligament put in which will replace the snapped real one, so she should be able to return in a few weeks.

The injury was suffered on July 26 in the midst of a roll-up exchange with Doudrop during the Tamina & Natalya vs Doudrop & Eva Marie tag match.

Natalya and Tamina are due to defend the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship against Shotzi and Tegan Nox at some point when she returns.

We continue to wish Natalya a safe and healthy recovery.
