There is more news out on Charlotte Flair's knee injury and it's much worse than anyone could have anticipated. 

PWInsider.com is reporting that Flair's injury is likely much worse than just a torn ACL and that there were additional knee injuries. It's unclear what those additional injuries are or if that means that she will miss even more time. Last night on Friday Night SmackDown, it was announced that she would be out of action for 9 months, which means that she will not be wrestling at the Royal Rumble or WrestleMania. The best case scenario is that she would be ready for SummerSlam.

The torn ACL was rumored within WWE earlier this week but no one anticipated that there would be additional injuries. Flair's surgery is reportedly scheduled to happen sometime around the holidays. Best wishes to her on her recovery after the surgery. You can see the spot that caused the injury in the video below.
