Rollins quickly corrected himself to clarify the precise nature of the spinal injury.

She didn’t break her back. Her back was broken. She had a little fracture in one of her vertebrae that—so she was out of action. She couldn’t wrestle for six weeks or so.

The Times of India noted that the injury occurred prior to her October 5 match against Liv Morgan on Monday Night RAW. Rollins also stated on the program, I’m good. Chill. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, I’m comfortable. I’m always sort of a little like on edge like—well, just because you don’t want her to get hurt, you know what I mean?

In-Ring Return and Championship Picture

Lynch stepped away from television following an extended run in the early summer before returning to WWE programming in August. Her official in-ring return took place on the October 5 episode of RAW against Liv Morgan, where the match ended in a disqualification after Women’s World Champion Stephanie Vaquer interfered.

Rollins also expressed relief that Lynch is competing in a traditional Triple Threat match rather than enduring the high-risk falls associated with the Women’s Money in the Bank Ladder Match, noting, And now, luckily, she’s not in these ladder matches, which, you know, that I—that would be like full-on clenched, but like she’s—she’s just in the triple threat. Um, it’ll be physical. It’ll be a fight, but there’s no—you’re not falling from 10 feet off a ladder through another ladder. There’s—there’s—there’s less danger in a standard triple threat match.
