Naomi was unexpectedly pulled from the WWE Women’s World Championship match involving Iyo Sky just moments before the event, leaving fans and fellow wrestlers alike puzzled. Natalya, speaking on Bust Open Radio, described the situation as “crazy,” but suggested there might be a more private reason behind Naomi’s absence. She admitted that even those in the locker room are mostly in the dark about the details.
Natalya shared, “It’s one of those things where maybe someone knows what’s happening. Naomi is a close friend of mine, and I believe she needs some space right now.” She emphasized that the situation shouldn’t be seen as negative but acknowledged it is deeply personal. Natalya added, “When something wild happens, it’s not necessarily bad. It’s private and personal. Naomi will share when she’s ready, but she did compete against Iyo.”
Naomi was set to defend her title on Raw but was pulled hours before the show with WWE citing that she was “not medically cleared.” This sparked even more speculation, especially since Naomi had been actively promoting games over the weekend. Iyo Sky ended up facing Lyra Valkyria in a non-title match instead.
For now, fans will have to wait for Naomi to speak out, but her WWE colleagues clearly support her. Regardless of the circumstances, fans hope Naomi recovers and returns stronger than ever. What do you think is happening behind the scenes? Is WWE withholding information? Share your thoughts below.
