Leyla Hirsch Confirms She Underwent ACL Surgery

Leyla Hirsch has confirmed that she underwent surgery to fix a torn ACL. The AEW star posted to Twitter on Thursday to confirm a report from earlier this month that she suffered an injury during an AEW Dark: Elevation taping.

The post read:

“On April 5th, during AEW Dark Elevation, I suffered an injury. After landing on my feet from a moonsault, I tore my ACL. Today I was finally able to get my surgery.

Thank you to everyone for the support . I promise to come back an improved, leaner, meaner more Legit Athlete.”
