Chelsea Green Says She Suffered Broken Ankle, Clouding Elimination Chamber and WrestleMania Plans

Her withdrawal from AAA forced a lineup change that resulted in the Mixed Tag titles changing hands.

Overview

  • Green was injured during a Feb. 6 SmackDown Elimination Chamber qualifying match, after which she missed a scheduled AAA appearance.
  • On Feb. 11 she announced on social media that her ankle is broken, sharing images of bruising and what was presented as an x-ray.
  • A backstage segment at the AAA show showed Ethan Page FaceTiming Green in a walking boot as she told him she could not compete.
  • With La Hiedra substituting for Green, Page lost the AAA Mixed Tag Team Titles to Lola Vice and Mr. Iguana, who were crowned new champions.
  • Newsweek reported the diagnosis likely rules Green out of Elimination Chamber and jeopardizes her WrestleMania status, though earlier reports had suggested only a bruise and some outlets questioned the posted x-ray image.
