Former WWE Women’s World Champion Stephanie Vaquer has reportedly been sidelined indefinitely following her sudden removal from a scheduled high-stakes match on Monday Night RAW.
Despite taking to social media over the weekend to declare herself fully cleared from an ankle injury, RAW General Manager Adam Pearce opened the October 26 broadcast by announcing that Vaquer was not medically cleared to compete against Becky Lynch in their Number One Contender’s bout.
Medical Status Shift Believed To Be Illness-Related
While initial speculation pointed toward a aggravation of her ankle injury, backstage reports have shed new light on the sudden change of plans:
- Illness-Related Absence: According to Mike Johnson at PWInsider, internal belief within the company is that Vaquer’s latest absence is related to an illness rather than a physical structural issue.
- Indefinite Timeline: Cory Hays of False Finish reported that Vaquer is currently considered “out indefinitely” as she recovers.
- Last Ring Appearance: Vaquer has not competed on television since losing the Women’s World Championship to Liv Morgan in a Triple Threat match involving Lynch at Money in the Bank, with her most recent action occurring during WWE live events in Hawaii on October 16 and 17.
Main Event Booking Pivots On WWE RAW
With Vaquer unable to compete, Adam Pearce altered the night’s main event, placing Becky Lynch directly into a Women’s World Championship match against Liv Morgan. That contest ultimately ended in a disqualification following interference from The Judgment Day, leaving the immediate division picture in limbo.
