Chelsea Green reportedly sustained an injury during a SmackDown tag-team match after having won the interim WWE Women’s Championship at SummerSlam; the injury’s specifics haven’t been disclosed and neither WWE nor Green have commented publicly, with the interim title previously tied to Rhea Ripley’s injury.
WWE will crown an interim WWE Women’s Champion instead of forcing Rhea Ripley to vacate her belt due to a torn meniscus. A ladder match at SummerSlam will determine the interim titleholder, with five women earning spots on SmackDown to enter the match; likely entrants include Charlotte Flair and Jade Cargill, and Ripley will face the interim champion upon her return to decide the undisputed champion.
