WWE Superstars unfortunately deal with injuries on a regular basis, and while there is no good time for such a setback, it can be devastating to be put on the shelf during a championship reign. A certain popular Superstar is facing the potential end to two championship reigns as WWE has just confirmed an injury.
Sol Ruca is currently 193 days into her first reign as WWE Women’s Speed Champion, and 185 days into her first reign as NXT Women’s North American Champion. Now it appears she may have to relinquish the titles due to an injury suffered on last Friday’s live SmackDown episode, where she and Zaria failed to dethrone Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss of the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship.
There have been rumors on a potential injury to Ruca since last week’s 12-minute tag team showdown on SmackDown. At one point, the 26-year-old had an awkward landing after diving to ringside. She was later helped backstage by Flair, Bliss, and Zaria.
WWE will present tonight’s NXT episode as the go-home show for Saturday’s Halloween Havoc PLE from Arizona. It was previously announced that the first-ever Halloween Havoc to air on Netflix will feature Blake Monroe challenging Sol Ruca for the NXT Women’s North American Championship. The former Mariah May of AEW won a recent Battle Royal to earn her first title shot in WWE.
Ruca took to X today to announce that she will be in the ring on NXT to address what she called “recent occurrences,” fueling speculation on Ruca needing to take time off.
“Well guys, due to some recent occurrences, I need to address the NXT Universe. So, I’ll see you guys tonight in the ring on NXT,” Sol Ruca said in the video below.
