WWE has been without a notable NXT star for months. However, fans can expect to see this star back on television soon.
Nikkita Lyons has made her in-ring return. She previously suffered a torn ACL and meniscus in January 2023 before being sidelined this past February with another torn ACL.
She had surgery for it, and the typical timeline for a return is between nine months and a year. In a new clip on Twitter earlier this week, she noted that it’s been eight months since her latest surgery and that she is doing some boxing training.
Now, she has returned to in-ring action. On Friday, Lyons did so at the NXT house show in Davenport, Florida, where she teamed with Dante Chen and won a mixed tag team match.
