Just as Emma was starting to work her way up the card, facing Becky Lynch on a weekly basis, bringing Dana Brooke up to the main roster and apparently heading toward a PPV match, she's been derailed by an injury suffered about a week ago at a house show.

From WWE.com:
"Emma has a ruptured disc that will require her to have surgery," explained WWE ringside physician Dr. Chris Robinson. "She came to us in a great deal of pain, which seemed to be increasing. She was then given an M.R.I., which revealed that further action would need to be taken. Unfortunately, the Superstar's estimated recovery time cannot be determined until after her procedure is complete."
Emma is the latest to be injured, joining the likes of John Cena, Seth Rollins, Randy Orton, Bray Wyatt, Enzo Amore and Kevin Owens.
