The stars of WWE have been trying their best to make the most of the time they’ve been given on TV, but several names have been absent from WWE programming for some time now. It was revealed in September of 2025 that Piper Niven had to step away from WWE due to an injury, but now it looks like she could potentially be on the road to recovery.
Recently Piper Niven took to social media to announce that she underwent an anterior discectomy earlier this week when she posted the following:
“I went to California and all I got was this lousy anterior discectomy. 😆
I have so much I want to say about the past 8 months but we can get to that later.
For now, I just want to express my endless love and gratitude for every single soul that has helped me and cared for me during this difficult and really scary time.
Pain and heartbreak are incredible teachers and the lessons I have learned from this will stay with me forever.
I am so grateful to wake up from surgery already feeling better and I know I am coming out the other side of this so much stronger for the experience.
Lots of love
