As previously reported, WWE NXT Superstar Adriana Rizzo was sidelined after suffering a torn ACL and meniscus last summer. Now, it looks like she’s nearing her return.

Adriana Rizzo shared a message on her Instagram account today,
She wrote the following in the caption:

Guess who’s back… back AGAIN! Three years ago, I tore my left Achilles. A few months after I partially tore my left ACL. Then, in 2025, I tore that same ACL completely, tore my meniscus, and sprained my MCL—all in my left leg. Setback after setback left me feeling like I would never be the same.

Today, I can finally say I feel like my old self. Thank you to my surgeon, doctors, athletic trainers @dr.clayton.tomczyk weightroom coaches @jp_major @sarahsab @loganbyman and everyone else who helped me through this journey. You gave me the opportunity to be an athlete again.

To my family—thank you for supporting me along the way. And to Jonah… thank you for carrying me through the hardest season of my life. Thank you for every appointment, every encouraging conversation, every moment you reminded me who I was when I had a hard time seeing it myself. I couldn’t have done this without you @cutler_wwe ♡

To everyone who supported me, checked in on me, prayed for me, or believed in me from afar—thank you. It meant more than you’ll ever know. This isn’t the end of my comeback. It’s the beginning of what’s next.

It’s still unknown when Rizzo will be returning to the ring and NXT programming. You can view the message she shared below:
