On today's wrestling news, Ria Ripley is injured?

Is C.M. Punk heading to Smackdown? Jack Perry takes shots at C.M. Punk. And we've got the latest on Coteau Bushi's injury. Yes, I are you ready for the news time. My name's Phil. And this is Gareth. And first up, Ria Ripley is injured. It was announced on Smackdown. Last night, Wade Barrett and Joe Tessitore. Tesitori. I don't know why I did it like that, but I'll do it.

It's because of the European soul, that says.

That's it.

Yeah. It was announced on Smackdown last night, Wade Barrett and Joe, Tessitore. Testatore.

I don't know why I did it like that, but I'll do it.

It's because of the European tour, that's what happened. Yeah, I'm blaming on that. Revealed that Rear Ripley is being evaluated for her knee injury. We did see her on Smackdown last week, and she was kind of wearing that knee brace, but they didn't really say much about it then. But I have said that a return timeline does kind of depend on how she responds to treatment.

So there's no word on... really say much about it then. But I have said that a return timeline does kind of depend on how

she responds to treatment. So there's no word on exactly what it is yet. I'm sure it'll come out

at some point soon and we will let you know. But obviously, she wrestled Jay Cargill at Clash

in Italy, but then she's also done a couple of live events on the European loop as well.

The last wrestling in Lisbon, Portugal, in a six-woman match versus fatal influence, teaming with

Charlotte, Fire and Alexa Bliss.

So yeah, it's unfortunate for Maria Ripley.

Hopefully it's something that isn't too serious, and sort of she can either work through or sort of get something done to it. But it's just the way they sort of announced it on SmackDown. It feels like it might have been more serious than they initially thought maybe, especially when she was like on Smackdown last week. Maybe they thought they could work around it. But now they need to sort of give a time to heal it.

But best ways is go out to Rio Ripley, obviously, it's never good to hear these things and users to them gets well soon so they can get back on TV. But yeah, we'll have to wait and see what this is. Yeah, it does worry you, doesn't it? When they go the official announcement route, because it is a bit like, okay, and it's almost like they're saying, All right, fans, prepare, prepare yourselves.

She could be missing for a while.

Or it could be a red herring because we've been burned before and it could be a, oh, this is she's going to be injured and then suddenly boom, she pops by cup, she's at, the knee's fine, throw the knee brace off and kick everyone's ass. That could be a possibility as well. We've seen it any of the time.

I just hope she's okay because it's just never nice getting injured,

especially when you're like traveling and touring as well.

Because you imagine if you hurt your knee and you've got to get on loads of flights,

that's not a fun time, not a fun time.
