Nikkita Lyons shares details on the injury
The 22-year-old pro wrestler took to Instagram to reveal that she has a partial tear in her MCL. She stated that the injury was not something to be concerned about but it was enough to pull herself out of the NXT Women’s Breakout Tournament. Here is what she wrote:
‘Just wanted to give a little detail on what exactly happened as far as the condition. My knee is it. I have a partial tear on my MCL, just a sprain.
