WWE star Aliyah hasn’t wrestled since she and Raquel Rodriguez lost the Women’s Tag Team Championship to Damage CTRL. She has now revealed that an injury suffered during the match is the reason behind it.
The former champion revealed on Instagram earlier today that she suffered an AC sprain as well as an elevated rib in the match. She explained that the injury brought out a version of her that she had never seen before. It inspired her to keep going and complete the bout despite the pain:
“The emotions and energy I was feeling in the moment truly lit me up inside and I felt INDESTRUCTIBLE in that moment (yes, with an elevated first rib and ac sprain and all.) I am very grateful to get to do what I do and I hope my passion and efforts transcended thru your television screen.”

“I don’t know what the future holds or when I’ll be back. But I just want to say thank you for everyone that has reached out. I really can’t wait to get back in the ring.”
