Having returned to action on the Raw prior to WWE Elimination Chamber, Raquel Rodriguez is now unfortunately set for another spell on the sidelines.

Per PWInsider, Raquel is currently listed on WWE's internal inactive list.

At the turn of the year, Rodriguez revealed that she'd be diagnosed with Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS), and she also suffered a flare-up of this during the trip to Australia for that Elimination Chamber PLE. It's not known whether the powerhouse's latest absence is down to injury or whether it's related to those prior health issues.

WWE Elimination Chamber saw Raquel Rodriguez come up short in her quest to win the women's Chamber match and cement herself a shot at Rhea Ripley's Women's World Championship at WrestleMania XL. Raquel has had one more match since then, defeating Chelsea Green in quick, comprehensive fashion on the Raw after Elimination Chamber.

Rodriguez has been with WWE since 2016, becoming an NXT Champion, a two-time NXT Women's Tag Team Champion, and three-time WWE Women's Tag Team Champion during her time with the market leader.
