I googled this before asking and could not find anything that is keeping Woodley from defending.

So they can say

'This PPV is solid, it has TWO title fights'
'Please buy it'

Apparently he was injured but was waiting to see if he'd get that elusive money-fight. He didn't so he decided to get surgery, and here we are.

Woodley had shoulder surgery.

Woodley wanted to come back in July, Dana didn't wanna wait and booked Colby vs RDA for an interim title because he's stupid.

Woodley had shoulder surgery.

But now that Woodley is at full health following shoulder surgery

This is from June 5. They had an interim title fight with a healthy champion. And regardless, he hasn't even been out a calendar year.
