Summer Rae is currently training at the WWE Performance Center in Orlando, FL, hoping to be able to return to the ring in time for WrestleMania, according to Squared Circle Sirens. She has been out of action with a shoulder injury since August.
With the SmackDown Women’s Championship match at WrestleMania advertising the purposefully ambiguous wording that Alexa Bliss will take on “every available woman,” that definitely leaves open the possibility of a surprise appearance or two. There is a rumor that Vince McMahon wants Summer Rae to return for the WrestleMania match, though she is technically on the Raw brand.
Emma has also been training at the Performance Center and she has also been rumored to possibly make a surprise appearance in the SmackDown match, though that seems like it would make less sense, since she’s been (sort of) a part of Raw for a while now.
Naomi has also said on Twitter that she’s hoping she’ll be able to return for the WrestleMania match, so it might have a couple of surprise appearances. I miss Eva Marie.
