Naomi Recovering From Torn Tendon
Team B.A.D. member reveals injury on Twitter.
WWE's Naomi took to Twitter on Thursday to reveal that she has been put on the shelf with a torn tendon in her ankle.
Naomi is currently rehabbing the injury and did not give a specific timetable for her return, but did say she will be back soon.
A longtime babyface, Naomi turned heel in April of 2015 and engaged in a feud with Divas' Champion Nikki Bella. She then formed an alliance with Tamina Snuka, the cousin of her husband, Jimmy Uso. When the Divas' Revolution - in which NXT stars Sasha Banks, Charlotte, and Becky Lynch made the jump to the main roster - occurred, Banks joined with Naomi and Tamina, forming Team B.A.D. The trio feuded with Team Bella (Nikki Bella, Brie Bella, and Alicia Fox) and Team PCB (Paige, Charlotte, and Becky), but the latter two teams dissolved before the year was out.
In early 2016, Banks turned face and left the group, then won a feud with her former teammates. Naomi and Tamina were then on the losing side of a 10-woman tag team match at WrestleMania 32.
News of Naomi's injury follows word on Monday that Tamina recently underwent surgery for torn ligaments. There is no word on when she'll be back in action.
