Chris Bey Gives An Update On His Recovery, Says In-Ring Return Is A Long Way Off

At the TV tapings following last year’s TNA Bound for Glory, Chris Bey suffered a severe neck injury that paralyzed him. He has since regained the ability to walk and remains hopeful that he will be able to return to the ring. In an interview with Fightful, Bey gave an update on how he’s feeling after his injury and rehabilitation.

He said: “Mentally, I’m feeling great. Physically, I’m feeling great. There’s a long way to go if I’m going to get back in the ring, if we’re being honest. But the support from everybody is what keeps me fueling and keeps me going. The prayers don’t go unappreciated. Your blessings, your thoughts, all of that stuff, I feel that. It helps fuel me every day when I get out of bed. It’s a struggle to get up, but it’s worth it every single day. I put those feet under me. I look at the tattoo above my knee that says, every day above ground is a good day. I take that and I run with it. I try to put my best foot forward because I’m at the point of my life where I can put a foot forward again. So I’m just grateful and I’m blessed. I thank all of you and I hope you keep showing me love and support. I’m glad you haven’t forgotten about me.“
