The road to the biggest stadium show of the year has taken an unfortunate turn for one of the most prominent figures on the blue brand. On the February 6 episode of WWE SmackDown, Chelsea Green suffered a legitimate ankle injury. The incident occurred during a high-stakes triple-threat match against Tiffany Stratton and Lash Legend.
Despite the medical setback, Chelsea has remained a constant presence on television broadcasts. She has continued to appear in a wheelchair and with a walking boot to maintain her authority. Speaking on The Ghosts of Hollywood, Chelsea recently commented on the severity of her broken ankle to the WWE fans.
“My ankle, it’s broken. The inner ankle bone chipped and cracked. It’s very much broken. A lot of people are questioning that,” Green stated during the interview. She wanted to clarify the situation for those who thought the injury might be part of a storyline.
She provided a detailed description of the physical damage she sustained during the match. Despite the pain, she remains optimistic about her eventual return to the ring.
“I’m able to (put) weight there. I feel like we’re on a good trajectory to make a solid comeback,” she added. The athlete is working closely with the medical staff to ensure she heals as quickly as possible.
It remains officially unknown when Chelsea Green will be cleared to return to full-time competition. However, she has continued to make major executive decisions in her role as “Our President.” She recently made waves by appointing Randy Orton to her personal cabinet in a surprising administrative move.
While she focuses on her recovery, the rest of the roster is preparing for a massive broadcast. WWE SmackDown is set to take place at the Moda Center in Portland, Oregon, this Friday, March 6, 2026. The show will feature a highly anticipated main event where Drew McIntyre defends the Undisputed WWE Championship against Cody Rhodes.
The outcome of this championship match will have significant ramifications for WrestleMania 42 in Las Vegas. Additionally, Rhea Ripley is scheduled to go face-to-face with Jade Cargill to continue their escalating rivalry. Chelsea will undoubtedly be watching these developments closely as she continues her rehabilitation process ahead of the spring stadium spectacle.
