It seems one injured WWE star will have to wait until 2026 to get back in the ring.

Seth Rollins’ injury has dominated the top of WWE’s card in recent weeks. Rollins apparently suffered an injury to his shoulder during his Crown Jewel match with Cody Rhodes. This led to The Vision betraying Rollins, kicking him out of the group, with Rollins forced to vacate his World Heavyweight Championship.

This was the latest in a string of injury issues in the company. Back in May, Zoey Stark, Rhea Ripley and Kairi Sane faced off in a triple threat Match to determine who would go on to compete in the women’s Money In The Bank ladder match. During the match, Stark tried to hit Sane with a dropkick, but she landed awkwardly, injuring her right knee. Stark was then helped to the back by officials, leaving Ripley and Sane to fight it out between themselves.

There has been little word on Stark’s progress as she battles back to full fitness, but there has now been an update on her condition.

Zoey Stark Set To Be Babyface In WWE?

BodySlam.net has reported that Zoey Stark’s recovery is going well, and the timeline for her return to a WWE ring would see her back in action around the middle of 2026. WWE officials are said to be high on Stark as a talent, and there have been talks about how she will be used on her return, with a potential babyface run in the works.

Prior to her injury, Zoey Stark had been a part of the Pure Fusion Collective with Shayna Baszler and Sonya Deville, but both of those stars have since been let go by the company.
