Dave mentioned on WOR this morning that Io will be out for 2 months apparently. No word on the exact injury though. That likely means an MCL tear.

That would be cutting it REALLY fine for Takeover Tampa. As in literally "first match back is the title match" fine. I know everyone's in love with the idea of her winning it on WrestleMania weekend, but one more Takeover cycle would probably serve her best.

You can start building up the match before then (just don't get physical before she's actually cleared, or have Io beat up someone with a crutch or something), and Io will probably be back in the ring shortly before that date as well. The next Takeover after Tampa isn't until August as of right now. That's way too long to keep the title on Rhea with how she is right now.

I mean, a lot of scenarios are on the table, I just don't want to see Shirai rushing back before she's ready and possibly injuring her knee even more.

If you've followed STARDOM at all, she tends to come back and be better than ever. She's had a few injuries in STARDOM including a neck injury. She posted a video a couple weeks later of her doing some unique looking neck exercises, and was back a week after that. I wouldn't worry about Io's status on her return. She'll probably work some house show matches before her official return to the ring as well.

Like said neither Rhea or Io need to really get physical...this is where character building will really need to come into play.
Have Rhea throw out the challenge...but Io keeps her waiting for the anwser all while Rhea can do something like she is so confident that she defends her title every single week to prove that no one can beat her...of course not sacrificing the big names to her on a weekly basis....but like a Kayden Carter , Kacy Catanzaro women who will scrap but are clearly out matched.
And then say 2-3 weeks before hand Io finally anwsers her as Rhea's patience has run out etc
There are clever ways to buy Io plenty of time for her return.

AJ Styles is under evaluation for a possible separated shoulder, which happened during the Royal Rumble.

Orton's left arm looked to be bothering him later in the rumble. Don't know if that was anything or him selling or just Orton being Orton.

Joe may have been injured off the dive from last night's match.

Well "Ot indefinitely" and "Recovering ahead of projections" seems like a bad news/good news situation. He might he shut down till Mania.

The dance card for WrestleMania is looking pretty crowded, and I don't really see where AJ would factor in right now. He can heal up and make a surprise return the Raw after to set up his next program.

Couple of returns to take off the list, with Ruby Riott and Velveteen Dream back in action.
