There are plenty of injuries across the board right now in professional wrestling, including down in WWE NXT.
WWE NXT Superstar Aria Bennett, who’s been featured multiple times on EVOLVE as well as NXT live events, took to social media over the weekend to announce she recently tore her ACL, tweeting out:
“Life threw a curveball a few weeks ago…I tore my ACL. And yes it was torn in that dancing video, my surgery was scheduled for a later date.
Funny thing is, I didn’t even feel pain when it happened. I kept practicing like nothing was wrong. Found out later it was a full tear.
To protect my mental, I wanted to wait until after surgery to update my followers. At first it was a lot to process, until I started praying and realized God is always working…even when I can’t see it. *Praying hands emoji*
Keeping things fun and lighthearted has helped me get through the hard times. Laughter really is medicine. This is just one chapter in the story. Right now, it’s about healing, trusting the process, and coming back stronger—mind, body, and spirit.
Thank you for all the love, support, and prayers. I’ll keep y’all posted on the comeback. *Flex emoji* *heart emoji,*” Aria Bennett said in a post.
