The WWE Women’s Champion sustained an injury earlier this month.

Chelsea Green defied the odds at SummerSlam when she climbed the ladder to capture the interim WWE Women’s title. The win marked her first World title reign in the company. However, in her first appearance after the win, Green suffered an injury that almost derailed her first historic title reign.

During the fallout show of SmackDown, Green teamed up with the then Women’s US Champion Tiffany Stratton to take on Fatal Influence (Fallon Henley & Lainey Reid) for the Women’s Tag Team titles.

Green sustained an injury during the match; she suffered a broken orbital bone around her right eye. However, despite concern, WWE opted not to strip Green of the title and gave her 30 days to recover and defend the title.

However, a new video circulating online has sparked concern among fans, with some speculating that Green may have suffered another injury.

WWE pre-taped the August 28 edition of SmackDown in Ottawa, Ontario, after the August 24 edition of Raw this past Monday. As usual, multiple fan videos went viral online, with many capturing notable moments from the taping and giving fans an early look at what to expect from this week’s episode. 

One of the videos from the pre-taping showed medics checking on Green, who was wearing a face mask to protect her orbital bone injury. The medics took Green backstage, as fans started speculating she sustained another injury.

Green teamed up with Tiffany Stratton to take on The Irresistible Forces (Nia Jax & Lash Legend) in a tag team match, and the video circulating online is likely from the match.

If that’s the case, then Chelsea is likely not injured again. According to spoilers from the SmackDown taping, Green was taken away by medics during the match but later returned to continue competing.

As a result, the video circulating online is likely from that sequence, which was part of the match but, without the full context, may have made it appear as though Green had suffered another injury.

No, the video circulating online of medics taking Chelsea backstage was part of the match, as per spoilers, and Green returned to finish the tag team match alongside Tiffany Stratton.

Who won the tag team match?

The Irresistible Forces (Nia Jax & Lash Legend) defeated Tiffany Stratton and Chelsea Green.
