Things aren’t looking good for Rhea Ripley.
Appearing at the Power Slap event last night, Ripley gave an update on her latest injury.
“I hurt my knee. I got a slight tear in my meniscus. It’s healing. It’s getting there. It’s getting stronger. I can’t bend it very well, though. I kind of need it to bend, guys,” she joked.
She also gave an update on when she think she will return to action.
“I don’t know. I tore it in a really weird spot. So it’s kind of a little bit up in the air with just how fast my body recovers but I’ve been out for just over a month now. It feels better. It still starts to hurt and throb. It gets tired. I can’t get up or bend down really slow or kind of move side to side while crouching. We’ll see how it goes,” she said.
Ripley hasn’t wrestled since June 3rd, when she Charlotte Flair and Tiffany Stratton defeated Fatal Influence during a house show in Portugal.
It can take 4 to 12 weeks to heal a small meniscus tear but that depends where the tear is.
