The Hugger has been out of action for a couple weeks due to a separated shoulder thanks to the fact Nia Jax plays very rough. She had to give up her coveted SummerSlam match against Alexa Bliss due to her injury.
When Bayley talked to PW Insider a lot of people were hoping for more solid answers regarding her future. Unfortunately things weren’t so clear for Bayley in that regard.
“I just started physical therapy,” said Bayley. “So, for right now, I’ve never had an injury before that’s kept me out before, so I’m kind of taking it day to day. I’m not really sure how long [she will be out of action]…it it’s a couple of months or if it’s a few months of what’s it going to be right now. But, it’s separated, it’s a grade-two separation. It’s like the AC joint and the ligaments and all that stuff, so it’s not easy.”
The Hugger also spoke about how her shoulder is doing and some of the limitations she’s experiencing besides not being able to get in the ring.
“Just within the past couple of weeks, I think it’s been two weeks now, I’ve actually been able to move it a little bit and the swelling has gone down a lot. So, the motion is coming back a little bit more, but it’s more about getting the strength and being able to lift my arm in front of me. Like I can’t do my own hair and it’s really hard to do certain things, but I’m just trying to get back as soon as possible, but at a safe pace as well.”
We really do wish Bayley the speediest recovery time. But things like this happen in the dangerous world of professional wrestling. We’re just glad she’s on the right track to being cleared for a return to work once again.
