Piper Niven Dealing With Hand Injury, Sidelined From WWE Action

Unfortunate news out of WWE.

A couple of months removed from their tag team title loss, one half of the former tag team champions Piper Niven has been sidelined from action. We're told that Niven sustained a hand injury in the last month and hasn't been around of late. The fear internally was that she had a broken hand.

Niven last competed alongside her tag team partner Chelsea Green on WWE Main Event in St. Louis in a losing effort against Natalya & Tegan Nox. She wasn't featured in the Elimination Chamber Qualifying Last Chance Battle Royal, which led to many speculating on her absence. Green has since worked a couple of matches in singles competition, including the battle royal and a win on WWE Main Event over Tegan Nox.

We wish Piper Niven a speedy recovery
