It was pretty obvious that Brie Bella’s right arm was injured in her trios match with twin sister Nikki and Paige against Fatal Influence on Saturday night (Aug. 1) at SummerSlam.
All signs pointed to it being a pretty severe injury, too. Her body language, and then the quotes from Nikki and WWE chief content officer Paul “Triple H” Levesque
Now, Brie has revealed that she broke her shoulder blade (scapula). The internet says that’ll take roughly 3-6 weeks to heal and could take 6 months or more to regain
full mobility (of course, “the internet” isn’t what it once was, and it wasn’t a bastion of objective truth to begin with).
I wanted to thank you all for sending me all the love, warm wishes and prayers. When I was sitting in the hospital, I was reading everything you guys were sending my way, love you all!!! Unfortunately I’ll be out for a bit. I broke my scapula. If there’s one thing I know about my sister and I is that we don’t let broken bones stop us. Not sure how I finished that match, but I do believe between the adrenaline, passion for the business and the love for all the women I work with, it gave me the drive to finish. Now my new journey starts!! Buddy said he’s going to be my assistant, Birdie‘s going to be my nurse and they both told me that daddy is going to be my personal chef, so I am set!! if there is one thing I know about Brie Mode, she always finds a way to come back to her wrestling home. Let the recovery begin.
The_B shared her full post earlier in The Feed (along with what their Googling told them about scapula injury recovery):
Doesn’t sound like Brie’s got an easy road ahead of her, but she’s got a great attitude… and a goal to shout for in the Bella Twins reunion run she and Nikki have long wanted.
Join us in sending her best wishes for a full recovery.
