Road to recovery. One of the few constants in all of wrestling is being vulnerable to an injury. No matter how good or trained someone might be, there is always the chance that they could get hurt. It might even be due to a fluke accident, which can make things all the more dangerous. Some injuries can be a bit more devastating than others, but now a wrestler is on his way back from a long time on the shelf.
According to PWInsider.com, NXT’s Ridge Holland has been working especially hard at the Performance Center to return from his injury as soon as possible. He has received praise for his attitude and work ethic to recover from his injury. Holland suffered a left ankle dislocation, a right knee dislocation and a patella tendon rupture in a fight with Oney Lorcan last October. There is no word on when he will be back in the ring.
Holland is a British wrestler and a former rugby league player who signed with WWE in 2018. He began his career in NXT UK before moving to NXT in 2020. Holland chased both the North American and NXT Titles without ever winning either. Eventually he would move into the main event scene by going after Adam Cole. It would be revealed that Holland was scheduled to be part of Pat McAfee’s group before his injury.
Holland has all kinds of potential. Check out some of his time in NXT:
Opinion: This is some encouraging news as Holland is someone who had a lot of potential. You don’t get someone with that kind of size and power very often so seeing him getting the chance to rise up the card in a hurry is a great thing to see. I could go for seeing Holland come back and see what he can do, so hopefully he is back in the ring a lot sooner rather than later.
What do you think of Holland? What should he do when he gets back? Let us know in the comments below.
