Lana Issues Statement on Her Injury, Says She Wanted to Make Fans Proud with Her First Match

– As noted, Lana suffered a wrist injury this weekend and could be out of action for 4 months. She posted the following statement on Twitter and Instagram:

“I have dedicated my entire life to becoming the best sports entertainer I could be. Every since I have debuted in @wwe I have continued to go to @wwenxt & come hours early before live events to train & learn how to fight. I wanted my first match to make the #WWE Universe proud. My wrist fracture is proof that WWE & professional wrestling is not fake but very real. This is a bump in the road & can be discouraging but for every person that has believed in me and has ever chanted #WeWantLana I will keep going. From here forward I will share every part of my journey to my first match. Thank you to every fan that has cheered for me & chanted my name, you all give me the strength to be brave. I will continue to give everything I have to becoming one of the greatest women in WWE & entertainment.”

I will leave one of the greatest legacies in @WWE & I know it will require courage, sacrifice & overcoming adversity pic.twitter.com/qVh8vzI8DN
