WWE’s NXT brand has a ton of impressive talents who could do a lot on the main roster. Nikkita Lyons has been working hard to get to the top of the roster, but injuries have consistently kept her down. She isn’t going to let that stop her, and the Lyoness from the black and gold brand is still working hard.

WWE is still without one of its NXT stars as Nikkita Lyons is out with injury. She has been out of action since suffering a torn ACL and meniscus in January 2023, followed by another torn ACL in February. After undergoing surgery, her recovery timeline is expected to be between 9 months and a year.

In a recent Twitter post, Nikkita Lyons shared that it has been eight months since her latest surgery, and she has been doing boxing training. She highlighted the importance of resilience, stating that it’s not about falling but about getting back up and not quitting, encouraging others to reclaim their strength and protect their peace.

She wrote, “It’s been a minute 🥊 8 months post op on my left ACL. now im even 🦿😁🦿lmao… it’s not over when you fall, it’s over when you don’t get back up and just quit. no one knows all you’ve been through but you. take your power back and protect your peace.

Nikkita Lyons began her pro wrestling training in 2018 under Selina Majors before debuting in Women of Wrestling as “Faith The Lioness.” So, she did have some indie reps under her belt prior to her WWE NXT premiere.

Lyons was a part of WWE’s tryouts in 2021 and was signed by the company in quick fashion. She later made her WWE NXT debut that December, and that commanded a ton of attention. She still has a long way to go, but Nikkita Lyons is still going to keep going as hard as she can to make that in-ring return a reality.
