It looks like SmackDown Live’s Women’s Division will be short one talent due to an injury. Tamina Snuka has reportedly suffered a torn rotator cuff and underwent surgery to repair the issue. Her last appearance came in the first-ever Women’s Royal Rumble match where she wrestled through the injury. Two days later she underwent surgery to fix the issue.
Snuka’s appearance in the Women’s Rumble was up-in-the-air prior to the match as she was removed from promotional material for the bout at one point, before being added back again. She entered the match at the number seven spot but didn’t stay in the match longer than a few minutes as she was eliminated by WWE Hall Of Famer Lita. Snuka’s injury is the same as former RAW Tag Team Champion Jeff Hardy’s.
Hardy has been out-of-action since October and was given a six to eight month timetable for return. No timeframe has been given for Snuka’s injury return, but we’ll keep you updated as we learn more….
