WWE has once again taken the unprecedented step of vacating a championship title due to injury. This time around, it's Sol Ruca who was forced to relinquish her WWE Women's Speed Championship following an alleged injury. However, fans and insiders alike are skeptical about the legitimacy of Ruca's condition, with some speculating that the injury might have been fabricated or at least minor.
Ruca's comments on Tuesday's episode of NXT seemed to hint at a deeper issue between her and tag team partner Zaria, who lost her NXT North American Championship at "Halloween Havoc 2025". The tension between the two women appears to be escalating, with Ruca seemingly taking a subtle jab at Zaria during her announcement. Zaria responded by storming out of general manager Ava's office.
The question on everyone's mind is whether this was indeed an injury or just another layer in a storyline. Insiders like Bryan Alvarez and Dave Meltzer from "Wrestling Observer Radio" are questioning the legitimacy of Ruca's claim, while the growing rift between her and Zaria could be fueling speculation that there's more to it than initially thought.
In light of this development, WWE has now vacated another singles title in what seems like an attempt to create a sense of urgency around upcoming events. A tournament is set to crown a new titleholder for the WWE Women's Speed Championship, but it remains to be seen whether Zaria will participate and aim to settle her differences with Ruca once and for all.
The vacant title situation in WWE has become increasingly common lately, with Seth Rollins being stripped of his World Heavyweight Championship after suffering an injury. More recently, CM Punk and Jey Uso earned a title match for the vacant gold at "Saturday Night's Main Event", providing fans with a new focus for their attention.
As the story continues to unfold, one thing is clear: WWE's handling of its championship titles has become a subject of intrigue among wrestling enthusiasts. Will Zaria use this opportunity to address her issues with Ruca and claim the newly vacant title? Only time will tell.

. I mean, I get it that injuries can happen, but when you've got two super talented wrestlers like these two, you gotta wonder if there's more to the story than just a legit injury 
. And Ruca's comments on Tuesday were definitely...interesting 
. It feels like WWE is trying to create some drama and tension before their next big event 
. I love how they're setting up this tournament for the WWE Women's Speed Championship - it could be so cool if Zaria uses this chance to address her issues with Ruca once and for all 
! One thing's for sure, though: WWE fans are gonna be on the edge of their seats waiting to find out what happens next 
.
WWE is really milking this injury angle for all it's worth, aren't they? Like, first Seth Rollins loses his title and now Sol Ruca is done too? It's starting to feel like they're just making up excuses for their storylines. Interesting 
... sounds like a setup to me 
. I'm loving the drama between Zaria and Ruca though 
. A tournament for the new champ? Bring. It. On! 
And now we've got Zaria and Sol Ruca's beef escalating into a full-blown storyline. 
It's like WWE is trying to make us all wonder if it's real or just some elaborate con. 
The thing is, though, it feels like WWE's just milking this storyline for all it's worth. 
They're already setting up a tournament... are we gonna be stuck in this limbo forever? 
. It's like WWE is trying to create this sense of urgency around their events, but honestly, it just feels like a mess. They need to make these championships mean something again 
Can't they just let the drama play out for once 
Zaria and Ruca are giving me major tea 
️ with that whole thing 
Fingers crossed Zaria gets her revenge 
! It feels like WWE is trying to create more tension than necessary. I mean, come on, can't they just have a straightforward storyline for once? But noooo, now we've got fans speculating about injuries and feuds... Meanwhile, Zaria's getting her head handed to her in the tag team division 
. What's really going on here? Is Ruca even hurt or is it all part of some elaborate promo setup? I'm calling BS on this one 
We've seen so many stories like this unfold in wrestling and beyond – where drama gets created for attention, but ultimately just ends up causing more harm than good. The key takeaway here is that sometimes you gotta know when to hold 'em and know when to fold 'em... or in this case, when to just let it go 
The question is, when are they gonna stop with these unnecessary title vacatures? Can't they just let the wrestlers fight each other already? 
i mean, can we just get some straight answers already?!
