WWE First things first, there are some possible WWE SmackDown spoilers ahead... For those unaware, Monday night saw WWE tape this week's SmackDown episode after Raw had aired, and so, certain spoilers for the next blue brand outing have been making their way online. And for fans of Chelsea Green, there's been quite the scare. Of course, a broken orbital bone threw up plenty of questions over Chelsea's status as the Interim WWE Women's Champion earlier this month, though SmackDown GM Nick Aldis has given the Hot Mess 30 days to get herself cleared and ready to defend that title. However, Green appeared to suffer yet another injury at this week's SmackDown taping. In a clip circulating on social media from that SmackDown taping, Chelsea Green can be seen being assisted to the back by WWE officials, seemingly dealing with some sort of leg injury.

Thankfully, False Finish took to X to report that this "injury" is a work and simply part of the show.
