“Professional wrestling is the love of my life. My heart is at home when I’m in that ring sharing moments with you all.

“On Saturday night, my heart broke a little bit. At our NXT show in Florida, I tore my ACL. Those three letters have caused me to feel so much pain, disappointment and fear.

“I never thought that I would have to face this challenge and be ripped away from what makes my heart thrive — what I’m born to do.

“But here I am.

“That same passion that fueled me in the ring, will now push me to return to it. The unsettling, sorrowful, aching feelings will pass. I have incredible people in my corner; people who love me and believe in me and that means so much. 

“I have surgery on Tuesday and Wednesday I begin my journey back to my home — the ring.

“As a wise woman once said, “I am a goddess, a glorious female warrior.” So now its time to prove it.”
