Sol Ruca has suffered a torn ACL.

Hopefully she can heal up and return as quickly as possible.

I sympathize with anyone who has a torn ACL. They are not fun at all.

Wish her the best in a speedy recovery and rehab.

[asuka007]

There’s been a scourge of knee injuries with female wrestlers recently.

Makes me wonder if the training they’re doing might be involved somehow?

[salz4life]

I really like Sol so this is disappointing! Hopefully she can get it fixed and rehabbed so she can come back better than ever.

[ThankGodForSidJustice]

That's really unfortunate as she's shown a lot of progress over the last few months. Hopefully she can come back and pick up where she left off. Even though they've cooled off her push lately it's still another blow to the women's NXT roster which has been super depleted by injuries especially on the face side. I think they should seriously consider sending two or three main roster who aren't doing anything down after the draft to help out.

There’s been a spate of women footballers (or soccer, I don’t know what continent you’re in sorry) recently going down with ACL injuries and I think there’s chat going about of studies happening as to why female athletes generally have ACL injuries occur more often than male athletes.

Poor Tegan Nox is a prime example of that, she just cannot get a break.

Mmm. There's some really interesting conversation and study going on right now, sparked by this spate of women's ACL injuries across many sports. Some fingers are being pointed towards the quality of boots and other gear that sometimes has no thought put into it besides "make it like the men's gear, just, I dunno, a bit smaller".
Others point towards training methods and routines.

Biomechanically, there are some differences that need to be more provided and engineered for to reduce the risk of injuries like this and others. Especially when it's such a bad, long-term and potentially permanent injury like an ACL.

Rough for Sol, who was just starting to get some shine. Hope her recovery goes very well.

Dana Brooke

Someone like her would be perfect. I don't think she should get the Mandy push or anything but she would be great as gatekeeper face. Booked as a threat but can take L's to put over their young heels and it would mean something where she could add depth but at the same time not take away spotlight from the prospects who they are trying to build up.

[gritizen]

I figured it wasn't good, it never is when they do an off-screen injury. Also, this popped up on my timeline today, I don't know anything so I could be wrong, but I can imagine doing this would be good for your knees.

[Banjo Is Broken]

Dani Palmer needs to find a new best friend. Maybe she can get in the circle with Lash Legend and Jakara Jackson.

It seems like the menstrual cycle is a major factor too, according to other studies - when oestrogen is elevated in the menstrual cycle, it can interfere with the collagen in the joints, making them less stable and more inclined to injury. Chelsea FC have started changing their training for the women's team to try and reduce the impact.

[Ryushinku]

Right, there's a whole level of not putting the work in and making assumptions that seems to be in play here. In many athletic fields where decades, if not a century+, has been with the sports science focus on how male bodies react to different internal and external things and engineering for that.

My knees just started hurting simply watching that. I know she is athletic as hell, but my God....

Sol can be athletic all she wants but that is a very stupid thing to do be doing.

No kidding. Even with perfect foot placement, that’s still a move where she’s putting her entire body weight onto one leg. That’s just asking for an injury to happen.

I've never been a Dana fan, but I'd rather they give her a chance to reinvent herself in NXT than put her on Raw just so Graves can shit on her and say she should be fired.

Was it ever confirmed whether he was being fed that or if he was going into business for himself? Either Graves is a major a-hole or the company is incredibly stupid for keeping a woman under contract for a decade despite thinking she's horrible.
