Naomi just gave fans a heartfelt update about her pregnancy — and itâ€s a boy!

The former WWE Womenâ€s World Champion, currently off TV due to her pregnancy, took to Twitter with an emotional message revealing the gender of her baby. But the post carried much more than excitement — it came with vulnerability, honesty, and gratitude.

“ITS A BOY! 🥹💠We decided to cancel our gender reveal due to me dealing with a complication. Baby and I are stable, taking it one day at a time. Thank you all for the birthday love, wishes, support and prayers. 😘â€

Naomiâ€s message came shortly after her 16-week sonogram post had fans melting. In that Instagram post, she shared an adorable image of her baby who appeared to be dabbing in the womb — a gesture that perfectly echoes Naomiâ€s energetic and playful spirit.

“Dabbing at #16weeks is crazy 😂 #babyfatu @jonathanfatuâ€

Naomi first announced her pregnancy during the August 18 episode of Monday Night Raw, a moment that had fans both celebrating and heartbroken, as she also had to step away from the ring and relinquish her championship. Despite the setback, sheâ€s been clear: this isnâ€t the end. Naomi has vowed to return stronger and reclaim her throne.

Through every post and every update, Naomi reminds her fans why they adore her — she keeps it real. Even through complications, sheâ€s staying strong and letting everyone in on her journey with grace and resilience.

What do you think about Naomiâ€s journey so far? Do you see her returning for another championship run after motherhood? Drop your thoughts in the comments — weâ€d love to hear from you.

Naomi says sheâ€s having a boy.

In a social media post on Sunday, Naomi shared that she and Jimmy Uso decided to cancel their gender reveal event because she is dealing with a complication. She also said that she and the baby are stable and taking things one day at a time.

Naomi wrote:

“ITS A BOY!🥹ðŸ’.  We decided to cancel our gender reveal due to me dealing with a complication.  Baby and I are stable, taking it one day at a time.  Thank you all for the birthday love, wishes, support and prayers. 😘”

Naomi hasnâ€t wrestled since SummerSlam on August 3. She was scheduled to defend the Womenâ€s World Championship against Iyo Sky on the August 11 episode of Raw, but WWE announced she had been “medically disqualified†from doing so just hours before the show. She revealed her pregnancy on the following weekâ€s Raw.

Naomi later appeared on an episode of Whatâ€s Your Story? with Stephanie McMahon and said she found out about the pregnancy the night before her planned title match against Sky.

ITS A BOY!🥹ðŸ’. We decided to cancel our gender reveal due to me dealing with a complication. Baby and I are stable, taking it one day at a time. Thank you all for the birthday love, wishes, support and prayers. 😘

Osaka, 28, is a four-time Slam winner, while Raducanu, who recently turned 23, stunned the sporting world in 2021 when she triumphed at the US Open as a qualifier.

It was long past high time for a meeting of the pair when they finally went head to head at the Washington Open in July.

Raducanu was dominant that day against the former world number one, winning 6-4 6-2 for one of her best results of the year.

Before that match, Osaka said of Raducanu: “For me, she’s, like, the queen, like there’s a royal air around her.

“I feel like whenever I see her or Serena, the kid in me comes out, because they were my favourite players to watch.”

It emerged in that week that the pair were effectively strangers to each other on a personal level, having never had a conversation.

On the court, Raducanu’s game was doing plenty of talking.

“I watched her in Wimbledon, but I think it is different playing someone in real life than playing them or seeing them on TV,” Osaka said after her defeat.

“It was really good to get the experience, to feel how her ball is. Hopefully I can play her again one day.”

Raducanu’s verdict was one of great satisfaction, as she said: “I quite like these kind of match-ups where you’re playing a great opponent, a lot of people have eyes on the match, they’re into it. I’m pleased with how I was able to navigate playing a four-time Slam champ.”

Tennis has made both players wealthy and famous, but they have – perhaps more than most in the sport – suffered away from the court.

Both have experienced a downside to their status, with Raducanu having been followed by a stalker, while Osaka has struggled at times with her mental health and took a break from the sport after losing early at the 2021 US Open, the event where Raducanu’s momentous breakthrough arrived.

For several years, Jimmy Uso has been a father of two children, with fellow WWE star Naomi serving as their stepmother. In August 2025, that changed as Jimmy and Naomi, married since 2014, discovered that they would soon have their first child together. While appearing on “Cheap Heat,” Jimmy opened up about his plans for becoming a father again.

“I had my kids when I was 21 [years old]. I was in a whole nother mindset, a whole nother game. I was trying to get into the game, but now that we’re in the game, got security, we did our thing, this round having our child at 40, I’m so excited,” Jimmy said. “I’m so locked in, but I’m also more nervous. I’m on edge on everything. Because when I was 21, [I didn’t know] nothing. You just kept it moving. Now you got these phones, you got technology. [The kids are] showing me, I’m looking at things. I’m like, ‘Man, what the hell is going on here?’

“Trinity met my kids when my son was four. My son will be 20. My daughter was two and she said ‘These are my kids.’ We’ve accepted it,” he continued. “To sit here today, to have our own, I’m telling you, I got goosebumps right now because it’s very different. It’s super different. The present is everything, and that’s where I stand on today.”

According to Jimmy, he and Naomi (real name Trinity Fatu) are still in awe of their current reality, which recently revealed their baby to be yeeting in womb like Jimmy’s twin brother Jey Uso. Less than three months removed from the announcement of Naomi’s pregnancy, Jimmy says Naomi’s baby bump is starting to show. The former WWE Women’s World Champion is also adjusting to life off the road, with Jimmy encouraging her to shut her brain off and relax.

You never know what kind of chaos the school day might bring—but one classroom got a front-row seat to a full-blown WWE promo.

On November 1, 2025, a clip started circulating online of a teacher who showed up to class fully decked out in Naomiâ€s iconic “Caution†ring gear, complete with a championship belt. But this wasnâ€t just some quiet cosplay moment—she went full Superstar mode, pacing the classroom and confronting students like it was Monday Night RAW.

With students staring in disbelief—some laughing, others frozen—the teacher launched into a loud promo demanding answers about her missing merch:

“World Heavyweight Championship up in here. Whatâ€s up? Where my merchandise at? Where my merch? Where my merch at? You got my merch? No, do you have my merch? You got my merch? Where my merch at? This company is so disrespectful. Where my merch? Hello? Hello. Where my merch? Do you know where my merch is at? Oh, this is how we do it now. Okay, thatâ€s fine. Iâ€ll go find it somewhere else.â€

The whole thing was awkward as hell for anyone not in on the wrestling reference, but for fans? It was pure gold.

Naomi herself caught the footage and was all in. She reposted the clip on Twitter and cracked up, saying:

“Omg! I want to be in her class hahahhahahahhahahahhahahâš ï¸âš ï¸âš ï¸âš ï¸â€

The stunt may have confused half the room, but Naomi fans everywhere instantly crowned her Teacher of the Year. This teacher didnâ€t just clock in—she cut a promo and walked out like a champ. Whether she was hyping up the class or just fed up with grading papers, one thingâ€s for sure: she left an impression stronger than a steel chair shot.

Naomi Osaka has pulled out of the Japan Open before Friday’s quarter-final because of a leg injury sustained in the second round.

The former world number one held back tears and needed painkillers to come through a three-set last-16 win over defending champion Suzan Lamens on Wednesday.

Top seed Osaka, who completed the match with strapping on her left thigh, was due to face Jaqueline Cristian in the last eight but the Romanian will instead progress to the semi-finals.

The Japan Open made the announcement on X, saying: “We regret to announce that Naomi Osaka has not recovered from a left leg injury sustained during the second round of this tournament and has withdrawn from the quarter-finals scheduled for today.”

It is not yet known whether Osaka will play in the Pan Pacific Open in Tokyo later this month.

The four-time Grand Slam champion is the latest high-profile player to suffer late-season injury issues.

In September, Iga Swiatek complained the season is “too long and too intense” following a string of injuries among players at the China Open.

British number one Emma Raducanu called time on her season on Thursday after retiring from her two previous matches with illness.

Australia’s Daria Kasatkina, Ukraine’s Elina Svitolina and Spain’s Paula Badosa also ended their seasons early in recent weeks.

Across two tournaments in China last week, five players retired injured.

OSAKA, Japan — Naomi Osaka pulled out of her quarterfinal match at the Japan Open on Friday because of a left leg injury.

Her withdrawal ahead of the match resulted in Jaqueline Cristian advancing to the semifinals on a walkover, the WTA Tour said.

Tournament organizers said top-seeded Osaka hadn’t recovered from the injury suffered late in her second-round match. It will be Cristian’s third semifinal appearance of the year and her first on a surface other than clay.

Before the injury, Osaka had wins over Wakana Sonobe and 2024 champion Suzan Lamens.

After splitting the first two sets with Lamens, Osaka took a 5-0 lead in the third. But during a rally with Lamens, Osaka pulled up with an apparent issue with her left leg. She won the point after Lamens sent a backhand wide but requested a medical timeout after the next point.

Osaka, a four-time major winner, returned to the court with her left thigh wrapped and limitations in her movement but was able to close out on her third match point.

Osaka lost in the second round of the China Open in late September and also lost in the second round at the Wuhan Open last week.

In another quarterfinal Friday at the Japan Open, 2021 US Open finalist Leylah Fernandez beat Rebecca Šramková 7-6 (2), 6-3.

Jessica Pegula was twice broken while serving for the match in the third set but recovered to edge Hailey Baptiste in a tight tiebreaker Wednesday and advance at the Wuhan Open.

Sixth-seeded Pegula beat her fellow American 6-4, 4-6, 7-6 (6) on her seventh match point to reach the third round.

Pegula, who lost in the China Open semifinals last week, will next play ninth-seeded Ekaterina Alexandrova, who beat American Ann Li 7-6 (5), 6-2.

No. 3 Coco Gauff, coming off a semifinal loss to eventual champion Amanda Anisimova at the China Open, breezed into the next round with a 6-1, 6-0 win over Moyuka Uchijima in 51 minutes.

“I knew after that little break … it will be not that easy to get back in my rhythm. I’m really glad that in the second set I found my game and stepped in, and I think I played really great,” Sabalenka said. “I’m super happy to be back. I’ve won a lot of tournaments in China. It feels like home in this stadium, and I really hope I can go all the way.”

Sabalenka broke her 68th-ranked opponent in the opening game of the final set and converted her second match point to win in almost two hours.

After Sramkova broke Sabalenka twice to take the opening set, Sabalenka started her rally with a break in the fourth game of the second set and jumped to a 4-1 lead. She saved four break points in the seventh game.

Karolina Muchova became the latest player to succumb to the heat and humidity, withdrawing from her match while trailing Magdalena Frech 7-6 (1), 4-1.

WUHAN, China — Naomi Osaka dropped the first set before rallying to beat Leylah Fernandez 4-6, 7-5, 6-3 on Tuesday to advance to the second round of the WTA’s 1,000-level Wuhan Open.

Osaka was back in the central Chinese city for the first time since 2017 and, in the day’s first match on center court, facing the player who produced a major upset to beat her at the 2021 US Open.

Fernandez converted one of her two first-set breakpoint chances and served consistently. But Osaka stepped up pressure on the service returns in the second set, which featured five service breaks, and finished over the top of the 2021 US Open finalist.

Emma Raducanu, who beat Fernandez to win the US Open title four years ago, was trailing Ann Li 6-1, 4-1 when she retired from their first-round match due to dizziness.

In other early matches, Sofia Kenin edged Anastasia Zakharova 3-6, 7-6 (5), 6-3 to set up a second-round meeting against No. 16 Liudmila Samsonova, who beat Emiliana Arango 6-1, 7-5.

No. 2 Iga Swiatek was scheduled to make her Wuhan tournament debut in a second-round match against Marie Bouzkova in the night session.

Top-ranked Aryna Sabalenka and No. 3 Coco Gauff were due to open Wednesday. No. 4 Amanda Anisimova, the runner-up at both the US Open and Wimbledon this year, withdrew from the Wuhan Open citing a left calf muscle injury after winning the China Open title.
