Dana Brooke is "100% OK" after taking a nasty-looking bump from a Nia Jax Chokeslam on last night's episode of WWE Raw, reports PWInsider's Mike Johnson.

This went down towards the end of a six-woman tag team match pitting Brooke, Mandy Rose, and Charlotte Flair against Jax, Shayna Baszler, and Lacey Evans. Dana and Nia were the legal women when 'The Irresistible Force' threw Brooke from the top rope. Brooke was then lifted into a Powerbomb position, albeit with one of her legs down by her opponent's side. Jax moved her left hand up to Dana's throat to execute a Chokeslam but Brooke appeared to slip at some point and was then launched down to the mat with snapping impact.

The bump in question can be viewed at roughly 2:11 on the video below:-

The match was already clunky prior to this, with a shoot Shayna Baszler countout forcing Adam Pearce to emerge from backstage and call for an improvised restart.

Coming out of this, the most important thing is that Brooke wasn't hurt. Wrestling is a risky, dangerous profession, and bumps like this do happen, though the rough landing doesn't appear to have caused Dana any problems.
