“Yeah, properly potentialities that me returning to the ring are completely countless,” stated Tuft on “WrestlingNewsCo’s” podcast. “I did go by Dustin’s [The Nightmare Factory] and I did hop within the ring. I did not bump. I did not run the ropes. There only a second the place I used to be there visiting him, saying hello, speaking to him. I stated, ‘Hey buddy, you suppose I stick a toe within the ring.’ They had been doing their weekly YouTube taping. He goes, ‘Yeah, come on, let’s go,’ and the second I stepped in that ring like my coronary heart heart simply opened and I felt all this nostalgia come again. That was the second after I was like, ‘Yep, I feel I have to do one thing about this.'”
Tuft revealed she had coronary heart surgical procedure in 2019 and can be going again to the hospital someday in January, and if she’s given the all-clear, she would like to do a spot on the Royal Rumble.
“I did have a coronary heart surgical procedure in 2019 at Stanford. I had an aortic aneurysm, so it is genetic. My mother had it accomplished a 12 months earlier than me. Really, on the twenty eighth of this month, Stanford is reviewing all my scans to find out what, if any, limitations I’ve within the ring. So as soon as I hear again from them, then we’ll know precisely what my capabilities are within the ring. I can inform you past a shadow of a doubt, I am … one thing’s coming. I am unable to inform you what, however one thing’s coming. So far as the Rumble, would not that be an incredible spot?
