WWE Hall of Famer Nikki Bella has provided an update on Brie Bella‘s condition following the injury she suffered at SummerSlam.
Brie Bella was injured during The Bella Twins and Paige‘s tag team match against Fatal Influence on Night One of SummerSlam. After the bout, The Bella Twins shocked the WWE Universe by turning on Paige and launching a brutal post-match assault.
Following the event, Brie was taken to a local hospital for further evaluation after appearing to injure her shoulder during the match.
Speaking on Busted Open Radio, Nikki Bella revealed her sister remains in significant pain as doctors continue to assess the injury.
“She’s doing ok. She’s in a lot of pain. They’re still determining what’s going on and Brie will share that whenever (they have more information).”
At the SummerSlam post-show press conference, WWE Chief Content Officer Triple H said the company was still awaiting a full diagnosis and hoped the injury would not prove to be serious.
Brie has since confirmed she suffered a broken scapula, also known as a shoulder blade, an injury that will keep her out of action while she recovers.
Brie Bella’s Injury Comes Just After Nikki Bella Returned From An Injury She Suffered Before WrestleMania 42
The injury marks another setback for The Bella Twins. Earlier this year, Nikki Bella was sidelined with a broken ankle, an injury that altered WWE’s plans for the duo heading into WrestleMania 42 Night One and resulted in Paige’s return to the company to team with Brie Bella to win the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship.
Now, just after Nikki’s return to the ring, Brie faces a spell on the sidelines of her own.
