WWE Superstars give their all in the ring, and injuries can pop up at any moment. Now, Piper Niven has suffered a big blow to her momentum. She is out of action with an injury, and this is never good on the road to WrestleMania.
Piper Niven is currently out of action with a hand injury. There is a current fear that it is broken, and that explains her absence from WWE television.
Piper Niven’s Injury
According to a new report from Fightful Select, Piper Niven has been out of action with a hand injury, and the thought is that it is broken.
Although she last competed alongside Chelsea Green on WWE Main Event in St. Louis, where they faced Natalya & Tegan Nox in a losing effort, Niven was notably absent from the Elimination Chamber Qualifying Last Chance Battle Royal. This absence has sparked speculation among fans.
Although she has been active on social media, it appears that this would explain the former WWE Women’s Tag Team Champion’s absence. We’re Wishing Piper a speedy recovery.
Piper Niven’s Road in WWE
In 2017, WWE reached out to her for the Mae Young Classic tournament. She was granted permission by World of Sport Wrestling to compete and used the ring name Piper Niven. During the tournament, she defeated Santana Garrett and Serena Deeb before being eliminated by Toni Storm in the quarterfinals.
Niven made her debut in NXT UK in 2019, confronting Rhea Ripley. Her first televised match occurred on WWE Worlds Collide, where she defeated Zelina Vega. She later competed in a battle royal for a title opportunity but was eliminated by Xia Brookside. Niven contended for the NXT UK Women’s Championship but was unsuccessful in her attempts against Kay Lee Ray.
In June 2021, Niven transitioned to Raw as Doudrop, aligned with Eva Marie. She later turned against Marie at SummerSlam, beginning a feud between them. Despite a series of matches and appearances, including competing in the Queen’s Crown tournament, Doudrop’s tenure on Raw was marked by various challenges and opportunities.
In 2022, Doudrop challenged Becky Lynch for the Raw Women’s Championship but was unsuccessful. She also participated in the Elimination Chamber match for a title opportunity at WrestleMania 38. Following this, she pursued the WWE 24/7 Championship and formed a tag team with Nikki A.S.H. However, due to illness, Doudrop took a hiatus from competition.
Returning as Piper Niven in 2023, she competed in the Royal Rumble match and later partnered with Chelsea Green to capture the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship. Their reign saw successful defenses against various challengers until they were dethroned by Kayden Carter and Katana Chance. Now, Piper is ready to start her next chapter in WWE, but she will have to wait out this injury situation first.
What’s Next
Since Piper Niven’s injury, Chelsea Green has been active in singles competition, participating in the battle royal and securing a win on WWE Main Event against Tegan Nox. We extend our wishes for Piper Niven’s swift recovery.
