Early concern surrounding Chelsea Green’s status has been dialed back after new reporting revealed how WWE is internally viewing her injury.
According to PWInsider, those within WWE do not believe Green suffered a broken foot or ankle. Instead, the belief is that she is dealing with a bad sprain, though there is currently no timetable for her return to action.
“In asking around this morning, the belief within WWE is that Green suffered a bad sprain but did not break her foot or ankle. There is no word how long she will be out of action.”
The clarification follows Green’s February 7 appearance on AAA on FOX, where she was shown wearing a walking boot during a backstage FaceTime segment. The segment confirmed she was unable to compete or defend the AAA Mixed Tag Team Titles alongside Ethan Page, leading to an on-screen title change that fueled speculation about a more serious injury.
After the initial reaction, Dave Meltzer addressed the situation in the Wrestling Observer Daily Update, further reinforcing that the injury was not expected to result in an extended absence. Meltzer explained that the injury was not a break and that her time away should be limited.
“Chelsea Green’s ankle injury was a bruise and not a break, and while she did miss last night’s AAA show where she and Ethan Page lost the mixed tag team titles (Lola Vice & Mr. Iguana are the new champions), I don’t expect her out for too much time.”
With both reports aligning, the picture is now clearer: WWE does not believe Green suffered any structural damage, and while she missed the AAA taping where the titles changed hands, her injury is being viewed as manageable rather than disruptive.
With WWE reportedly confident there’s no break involved, does this update ease concerns about Chelsea Green’s short-term future, or did the walking boot and title change make the situation feel more serious than it actually was? Share your thoughts and let us know what you think.
