• Another Top WWE Star Expected To Return During Clash In Italy Weekend
Stephanie Vaquer suffered a second-degree AC sprain in her shoulder. WWE did an injury angle last month on RAW to write her off TV, where she was attacked by The Judgment Day backstage.
According to PWInsider, there’s growing expectation within WWE that Stephanie could make her return during the Clash In Italy PLE weekend.
Last week, her name had come up internally for a possible appearance on tonight’s RAW, although there’s currently no word that she traveled in for the show.
Another absent WWE star that is expected to return during the Clash In Italy weekend is Randy Orton, who is being advertised for the May 29th episode of SmackDown.
• Randy Orton Shuts Down Injury Rumors
Randy Orton was last seen on WWE programming at WrestleMania 42 – Night 1, where he failed to defeat Cody Rhodes for the Undisputed WWE Championship in the main event.
Also on that night, Orton laid out his partner, Pat McAfee. This led to the end of the McAfee storyline.
Yesterday, the Wrestling Observer reported that Orton has been off TV because he’s dealing with a back injury:
“He’s got a back injury and it’s significant. That’s why he’s been gone since WrestleMania and it’s probably why he didn’t win the title.”
However, that’s not the case. Orton shut down the injury reports by tweeting the following:
“Lmao just milking it guys, leave me alone I’m trying to enjoy my summer before I come back and take that #15”
Orton also retweeted the following video:
