Major update on Ruby Soho's injury after being attacked by former WWE Superstar
Ruby Soho was recently involved in a segment with Tay Conti that saw her arm getting injured. However, interesting details have emerged regarding Soho's injury.
After Blood and Guts, Eddie Kingston addressed the victory over The Jericho Appreciation Society. Chris Jericho then appeared on the screen with his faction alongside Tay Conti and Sammy Guevara. He then instructed Conti to slam the door hard on Soho’s arm, which Conti obliged.
The audience gasped in horror witnessing the attack on Ruby Soho. Jericho then warned Kingston to watch out and left the scene. The segment ended with two officials rushing to Soho's aid and calling for medics.

The segment led fans to ponder upon the possibility of the legitimacy of the spot. Many wondered whether or not the spot was done to cover up a legitimate injury situation for her.
On the latest edition of Wrestling Observer Radio, veteran journalist Dave Meltzer put a full stop to worrisome speculations. Here's what Meltzer stated:
“So, she’s not hurt, because she was doing indies over the weekend. She had a cast, of course, because they did the gimmick. But, the point is, last week we’re going, ‘Is this a cover for an injury?’ and it’s just an angle. There’s no real injury.” (H/T: BodySlam)
The reports make it clear that Ruby Soho's injury angle was created to elevate the Eddie Kingston-Chris Jericho feud. On Dynamite, Jericho and Kingston addressed their upcoming 'Barbed Wire Everywhere' deathmatch.
