Adriana Rizzo of WWE NXT recently revealed that she hasn’t yet acted on her torn ACLs and meniscus. This marks her latest setback, but the young star assured fans, “I’ll be back.”
In a recent social media update, Rizzo shared how her injury happened. Known primarily for her role in the D’Angelo family storyline, she explained that the injury occurred during training, not during a match.
“I was practicing, running around corners, and suddenly… my knees just gave out. It was like an explosion. I knew I was going to fall.”
A year and a half ago, Rizzo partially tore ligaments but opted against surgery at that time, choosing to push through instead. In her video, she discussed her feelings about that decision.
“When the time comes, I’ll get surgery. I’m going to keep going until then. Yes, I realized the risks, and yes, I’m still confident in my choice.”
Now that the entire injury has worsened, Rizzo will need time off to have surgery. Still, she is confident that upon her return to the ring, she will impress fans with her improved performance.
**Fan Take:** Adriana Rizzo’s journey highlights the challenges young wrestlers face, making her resilience essential for NXT fans to rally behind. Her determination to come back stronger not only boosts her character but reflects the spirit of perseverance that defines professional wrestling.
