BREAKING NEWS: Naomi is not medically cleared to compete and therefore her scheduled match against Iyo Sky will not take place tonight on Monday Night Raw.

The bout would have marked Naomi’s first singles match against Sky since winning the title at Evolution on July 13. She claimed the championship that night by cashing in her Money in the Bank contract during a match involving then-champion Sky. Naomi has since defended the title against both Sky and Rhea Ripley at SummerSlam on August 3.

Her next defense is scheduled for Clash in Paris on August 31 against Stephanie Vaquer. With her current status, it’s uncertain if she will be ready in time, putting the event’s Women’s Championship match in doubt.
