During this week’s episode of Friday Night Smackdown, Chelsea Green made her debut. She took part ina fatal four-way match which would determine who would get a spot in the Smackdown Women’s Survivor Series match.
During the early moments of the match, she was kicked off the apron by Liv Morgan and landed awkwardly on her hand. It was then that she suffered a wrist injury and had to be taken to a hospital.
Green also suffered an injury similar to this back on March 13, 2019, during her first NXT television taping match against Jessi Kamea. She was absent from WWE television for over three months then.
Green took to Twitter and let her fans know that she will be needing surgery.
“Just like the rest of my career, I couldn’t have an easy debut! LOL, that just wouldn’t be fit for my wild journey. I’m headed into surgery now. I am beyond devastated but so excited to be a part of @WWE team SmackDown, when I get back!”
Her fiance, former WWE Superstar Matt Cardona was with her at the hospital and he also gave an account of Green’s journey in WWE so far.
“Welp, tonight was bittersweet,” Cardona wrote. “I’ve seen her get told ‘no’ by WWE…to getting hired…to doing nothing in NXT…to finally getting a NXT match, but breaking her wrist during it…to getting surgery, rehabbing, coming back and still doing nothing…to getting ‘called up’…to going back to NXT…to getting ‘called up’ again…to debuting on RAW, but it was a taped episode and segment was cut…to doing nothing…to finally debuting on SmackDown tonight…but breaking her wrist and needing surgery again! JESUS! But, Chelsea is a fighter and she will come back again and be the STAR that she is destined to be. I love you.”
We wish her a speedy recovery and hope she makes it back to the squared circle sooner rather than later.
