On the other hand, NXT Superstar Adriana Rizzo revealed on Sunday through her Instagram account that she has torn her ACL and meniscus and will be undergoing surgery. She shared details about the injury and confirmed that she’ll be sidelined for a lengthy recovery period.

“Here we go again… torn ACL and meniscus. A setback, not the end. As some of you know, I’ve had a string of bad luck with injuries — I tore my Achilles in 2023, partially tore my ACL four months later, and have been working on it ever since. After a year and a half, it finally gave out on me. I’m ready to attack this and come back 100% healthy for the first time in my WWE career.” Rizzo wrote.
