B-Fab may be the latest WWE Superstar to suffer an injury, adding to a growing list of talent sidelined in recent weeks.

According to a report from Fightful Select, B-Fab was believed to have possibly sustained a concussion during WWE’s holiday house show tour this week. While the situation hasn’t been confirmed, WWE officials were reportedly concerned enough to pull her from action as a precaution.

B-Fab was filling in for Michin, who had already been taken off the road earlier due to a shoulder injury. That change affected SmackDown plans, where a match between Jade Cargill and Michin was pulled from the show. In storyline, Cargill cut a backstage promo claiming responsibility for Michin’s injury, saying it was a warning to the rest of the women’s division. Michin later posted a video to social media confirming the injury but told fans it was only a short-term setback.

Michin had been involved in a slow-burn feud with Jade Cargill since confronting her following her WWE Women’s Championship win. The original plan was for Michin to earn a title opportunity if she could defeat Cargill in a singles match on SmackDown — a match that never happened due to the injury.

This development with B-Fab and Michin comes at a time when both WWE and AEW are dealing with a noticeable uptick in injuries. WWE’s Sheamus recently underwent shoulder surgery after being removed from the Last Time Is Now tournament, while AEW’s Luchasaurus has been written off television following his own shoulder issue.

With multiple Superstars now dealing with injuries across both major companies, concerns about roster depth and the physical toll of the schedule are once again front and center.

Ringside News will continue to provide updates as information becomes available.
