Chelsea Green Showing Improvement After Broken Ankle Injury

Chelsea Green’s injury situation has taken a positive turn following concerns about a more serious setback.

After revealing on February 11 that she suffered a broken ankle—despite earlier reports suggesting a minor issue—there was immediate uncertainty surrounding how long she’d be out of action. Green leaned into her signature character while breaking the news, even sharing an X-ray and presenting the update in her over-the-top “Chelsea Chronicle” style.

“Ankle breaks, spirit prevails. Nation watched in horror as resilient President finished wrestling match on live TV.”

Now, there’s a clear update on her condition. According to PWInsider, Chelsea Green was present at today’s WWE 2K26 video game event at WWE Headquarters on February 19, and she was able to move around while wearing her walking boot. The report notes that this is a sign of improvement stemming from the ankle injury she suffered on SmackDown just weeks ago.

That’s a notable development considering the initial concern once the fracture was confirmed. While no official timeline has been announced for her in-ring return, being mobile—even with a walking boot—suggests her recovery is progressing in a positive direction.

Green had previously been forced out of action, including being unable to defend the AAA Mixed Tag Team Championships alongside Ethan Page. The titles were instead awarded to Lola Vice and Mr. Iguana following her injury.

Even with the setback, Green has continued to stay visible and in character, keeping attention on her recovery while maintaining her presence in WWE’s ongoing projects. With this latest update showing progress, the focus now shifts to how quickly she can get back into the ring—and whether WWE has plans waiting for her once she’s cleared.

Do you think Chelsea Green will bounce back quickly from this injury, or should WWE take their time bringing her back? Let us know your thoughts.
