Brie Bella has been injured since SummerSlam 2026.
Brie Bella has had a remarkable stint since returning to WWE at the 2026 Royal Rumble Premium Live Event. However, an unfortunate injury at SummerSlam 2026 derailed her run, halting major creative plans for the Bella Twins.
She was part of a six-woman tag team match, teaming with her sister Nikki Bella and Paige to battle Fatal Influence (Jacy Jayne, Fallon Henley, and Lainey Reid).
During the match, Brie suffered a broken scapula, after which she went on hiatus to heal. As of this writing, it has been two months since Brie got injured.
While she did not undergo surgery, the doctors have given her a recovery timeline of 3-6 months. Recently, she had a scan on October 1, following which she gave an update on her condition.

In a recent edition of The Nikki and Brie Show, Brie Bella updated fans on her injury status. The former WWE Divas Champion revealed that she is still far from returning to the ring. Brie also added that it was important for her to heal properly, get back in proper in-ring shape, and not rush things to deliver poor performances.
“I still think my days to be in-ring are still far, unfortunately. And just so you all know, I’m not the type of girl anymore who’s going to rush things, So for me it’s like making sure my bones are fused, then next going back into the right type of exercise, getting my body strong.
And then the next is getting back into practicing in the ring and making sure my in-ring work is back to par. I don’t want to be rusty in the ring anymore. I want all of it out before I make that comeback, but I’ll keep you guys updated.”

In a former interview, Brie also said that she was targeting her WWE return before the 2027 Royal Rumble PLE. The event is set to take place in her hometown of Arizona, in February next year.
Therefore, the fans will have to wait and see if Brie manages to recover by then and make her in-ring return, which will surely garner a loud pop from the audience.
