Nikkita Lyons Gives Update on Her Recovery Progress – Nikkita Lyons recently provided an update on her recovery from a torn ACL and meniscus suffered in January 2023, which sidelined her for several months. Although she made a return to WWE NXT on December 5, she hasn’t competed since January 9, where she faced Blair Davenport. In February, Dave Meltzer reported that Lyons was dealing with another injury, but details remained unclear.
During an interview on The Hall of Fame with Booker T and Brad Gilmore, Lyons shared her recovery timeline. She underwent surgery two months ago and expressed optimism about returning by Halloween Havoc. However, she emphasized the unpredictable nature of injuries, acknowledging that recovery is a day-by-day process.
“It’s been two months since my surgery, and honestly, I feel like these two months went pretty quick, at least for me, because run on the grind every day. But right now, I’m hoping by Halloween Havoc. I’m hoping that’ll be a good time. But also I want to make sure…it should be ready to go. But I don’t want to say an exact, you know, like, ‘It’s gonna be here,’ because with injuries, it’s kind of day by day. Going back to the out of sight, I’m gonna stay active. I’m not going nowhere. I ain’t going nowhere. That’s why I’m shoving myself in y’all face. Y’all are not gonna see this brick house blow down. That’s where I’m at, and that’s where I cross into my music and different forms of art that I can do, still talking to the people, being involved, going to these community events and charity events, like I ain’t going nowhere. I’m just gonna continue to improve in every other way I can until I can step in the squared circle again,” Lyons said.
As of now, there’s no definitive timeframe for Nikkita Lyons’ return to WWE programming, but she continues to work diligently towards that goal.
