Predicting How And When Every Injured WWE Star Will Return

7. Naomi

Naomi arrived on Raw as part of the 2019 Superstar Shake-Up and was positioned as an important player in the women's division straight from the get-go...only to inexplicably disappear from programming soon after.

Her last televised match took place at the July 22 Main Event taping, beating Sarah Logan. Her husband Jimmy Uso also quietly took time off several weeks later after being arrested on a DUI charge, so it's possible their absences are related.

Aside from posting about her involvement in the ninth season of 'Total Divas' on social in the final few months of 2019, the only update she's provided on her status was on Instagram in September. She noted that she had been going through a difficult time and had to take a step back after discovering some health issues she wasn't aware of.

That was over three months ago and she has shown zero signs of being any closer to an in-ring return.

Then again, The Usos recently returned on SmackDown, so she may not be far behind. The women's Royal Rumble match would be as perfect of a time as any for her to come back, not to mention that the blue brand's women's division could use the additional depth.

Bayley vs. Naomi may not be WrestleMania worthy, but it'd definitely be a fresh feud, if nothing else.
