With a nose injury, Rhea Ripley could be out for a short time
At the moment, it's not certain how long Ripley will be gone from action. However, it should be noted that the star is definitely injured with a broken nose.
This injury usually does not mean a long hiatus, but depending on how bad it is, the star could be out for a short few weeks, and might need to wrestle for the next few weeks wearing a protective mask.
Stars have made such masks part of the storyline in the past, such as Trish Stratus and Cody Rhodes. It remains to be seen what the star does next.
