Ash by Elegance Explains Recent Health Issues That Forced Her To Step Away From the Ring

During a recent interview with the Generation of Wrestling podcast, TNA Wrestling star and former Knockouts World Champion Ash by Elegance detailed the health issues she was dealing with, leading her to temporarily step away from the ring and vacate the Knockouts World Title at TNA Victory Road last year. Below are some highlights (via F4WOnline.com):

Ash by Elegance on Her Recent Health Issues

“I’m still going through it, which is crazy. You don’t have to have an injury. What I’m going through is a health issue. A lot of people, especially in my situation, I don’t look sick. I feel good today, but tomorrow might not. So, it’s definitely a health issue. My issue is weird. They call it like a medical mystery. I’ve done so many things, I spent numerous days in the ICU that nobody really knows about because I haven’t put that out there yet until I honestly can find out really what this is. We’re on a good track now.”

On Nearing Her Diagnosis

“In the beginning, what had happened that kind of forced me into retirement has trickled now into this, and it’s kind of all adding up to being this one diagnosis. I’m just not going to say it yet until it’s really out there. … I’m good to wrestle, it’s just sometimes it’s difficult because my body kind of goes a little wonky.”

Ash by Elegance will be in action at TNA Rebellion later this Saturday, April 11. She’s set to team with the Elegance Brand’s Heatheer and M against the dream team of Mickie James, ODB, and Taryn Terrell in a Six-woman Hardcore Country tag team match.
