Rumor Roundup: Original Plans For The WWE Title At Day 1, Sasha Banks Update, More

Here are some of the latest WWE rumors that are floating around.

5) WWE Star Working Injured

According to Mike Johnson of PWInsider, Carmella is currently working through an injury. Not much is known but WWE is booking around the injury.

Here is what Johnson wrote:

WWE Women’s Tag Team Champion Carmella is currently working hurt through an injury and her appearances are being specifically produced to work around the issues, PWInsider.com has confirmed.

While PWInsider.com has not 100% confirmed the nature of the issue, this past Monday on Raw, Carmella never tagged into her tag team bout against Rhea Ripley and Nikki A.S.H.  Previous appearances in recent weeks have also been produced to limit Carmella’s physical involvement with partner Zelina Vega working much of the bouts.  Carmella did not work the Holiday Tour last month, either.

A number of WWE talents pointed out their respect for Carmella for gutting through and doing as much as she can do despite being currently restricted in what physicality she is allowed to take part in.  

My Take:

  • Props to Carmella for toughing it out.

4) Sasha Banks Update

According to Mike Johnson of PWinsider, Sasha Banks is dealing with a sprained leg. This comes after rumors that she suffered an injury a few days ago.

Here is what Johnson wrote:

The word making the rounds at Raw this past Monday night was that Sasha Banks was dealing with a sprained leg coming out of her match with Charlotte Flair in Fayetteville, NC.

My Take:

  • Good to see that it isn’t a serious injury. A sprain seems like it would only take a few weeks to recover from.
