Carmella Reveals Injury She’s Been Dealing With Since Childbirth, Still Wants To Return To The Ring

Carmella reveals she’s dealing with an injury she suffered during childbirth, which is preventing her from returning to the ring right now.

WWE Superstar Carmella was a recent guest on The Nikki & Brie Show. When asked about a potential return to the ring, Mella said she misses the fans and performing, but she’s been dealing with nerve damage in her foot that took place during labor called drop foot.

“Of course. I miss the fans, I miss performing,” Carmella said. “I fell in love with that and have been doing it for 11 years. More than anything, I want to prove to myself, ‘I can go through this insane experience of labor, delivering, pregnancy, and my body is completely different from the inside out,’ but I’d love to go back and prove that I can. No one else, just to myself.

“Unfortunately, I’ve been dealing with, what is called drop foot. I have an injury from labor and delivery and pushing the baby out. I have herniated discs in my back, which push on this nerve that is connected to my right foot.

“The top of my foot, it’s hard to lift. I’m literally limping around everywhere. It’s gotten better, but I’ve been wrestling for 11 years, and other than some concussions, knock on wood, never had any injuries. Now, I have a major injury from delivering my son.” [H/T: Fightful]
