Paige questionable for Extreme Rules following 'internal injuries' caused by Naomi's attack on WWE Raw

WWE.com

WWE.com is reporting that the #1 contender for Nikki Bella's Divas championship, Paige, is injured.

The 'internal injuries' are due to Naomi's assault on the Brit in the moments after she eliminated the former Funkadactyl and won the battle royal to become Bella's challenger on last night (April 13, 2015)'s episode of Monday Night Raw from London's O2 Arena. Naomi, frustrated that he string of wins since WrestleMania didn't earn her a shot at the title, beat Paige to the floor and slammed her into barricade repeatedly.

The Diva of Tomorrow was announced as facing her Total Divas co-star at Sunday, April 26th's Extreme Rules pay-per-view (PPV), but that may be changed due to these "injuries".

In the real world, this is an angle designed to get more heat on Naomi's heel turn, and possibly to write Paige off so she can film the movie Santa's Little Helper for WWE Studios.

We'll get right back to you with a medical report and prognosis for recovery as soon as we get it from WWE Creative, Cagesiders.
