The Mae Young Classic recently wrapped up at Evolution with Toni Storm winning the tournament, but many competitors entered the tournament with high hopes of making it to the end.
One of those competitors was Vanessa Kraven who was eliminated in the first round by Lacey Lane.
Unfortunately Kraven revealed on social media that she recently suffered a leg injury during an Acclaim Pro Wrestling event in Ottawa when she posted the following:
“So, friends and fans, unfortunately my lower leg/ankle requires fixation surgery. My fibula will be getting a plate and screws and a piece of my ankle will be reattached with pins. Surgery will be on Friday. I was planning on coming to Renfrew for the show on Saturday if I was only in a cast, but surgery requires me to at least take a few days to get through the initial unpleasantness. I’ll have to wear a boot after the operation for anywhere up to 2 months. Could be off sooner if things go well!
I will still be in attendance at both C4 and the joint Smash/FLQ shows on Nov. 16th and 17th. Come say hi and buy some new 8x10s or a t-shirt to support me during my downtime. Every little bit is appreciated. As for a projected ring return date, I don’t have one just yet. I want to focus on regaining strength, mobility, range of motion and do a good amount of physio before anything else.”
It looks like things went well with the surgery as she later noted that she’s on the road to recovery.
I am alive and out of surgery!
Heading to the recovery room now for a bit. ✌🏽
