Naomi injured her knee while doing a split-legged moonsault in the finish of her win over Alexa Bliss at Elimination Chamber, according to Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter.
Naomi’s injury is also apparently similar to the injury Seth Rollins has, though there is no word on what the exact injury is. Rollins has a torn MCL. Also no word on whether or not she will be back by WrestleMania, but it likely won’t be too long of a recovery either way. WWE initially expected her to be able to compete this past week on SmackDown, but the injury was more serious than expected.
Update: Naomi posted this on Instagram:
I damn near blew out my mcl and every muscle from my calf to hamstring I'm just thankful it wasn't worse…#glowmob #naomob #glowbots y'all keep the glow alive until I return #rehab
