Former SmackDown Women's champion Naomi suffered multiple injuries after an attack by the Riott Squad on Tuesday's edition of SmackDown Live.
According to WWE, Naomi suffered a separated shoulder, a cervical strain and facial contusions as a result of the attack:
The injuries occurred in the midst of a six-woman tag team match pitting Naomi, Charlotte Flair and Natalya against SmackDown newcomers Ruby Riott, Liv Morgan and Sarah Logan.
Natalya left during the match, while the Riott Squad incapacitated Naomi when Logan sling-shotted her face into the steel steps.
That left Charlotte to fend for herself, and resulted in the Riott Squad picking up an impressive victory.
The Riott Squad made its SmackDown debut the previous week by attacking Becky Lynch backstage and interrupting a title match between Charlotte and Nattie.
The 29-year-old Naomi is a two-time SmackDown Women's champion who won the title in her hometown of Orlando, Florida, at WrestleMania 33 this year.
She eventually dropped it to Natalya, but she remains one of the top female Superstars the blue brand has to offer.
