Here are some updates on Asuka, Bayley and Lacey Evans, according to PWInsider:
Asuka
Asuka, who last wrestled in July, has been out with a shoulder injury.
The belief is that she’ll be ready to return within the next month, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that she’ll be back on TV immediately.
She was rumored for the Royal Rumble, but was not part of the match.
Bayley
Bayley, who last wrestled in June, has been out with a torn ACL that she suffered while training at the Performance Center.
The latest word is that she’s expected to be cleared to return in March, which would be about 8-9 months after the injury.
Lacey Evans
Evans last wrestled in February of last year and has been away because she was pregnant. She gave birth in mid-October.
As of now, there’s no exact timetable for her return, but she has been working out at the WWE Performance Center to prepare.
