Carmella, the WWE star, has been on a hiatus since March 2023, and the latest update on her health has left fans concerned about her future in the ring. The former SmackDown Women’s Champion took a break after announcing her pregnancy with husband Corey Graves, a WWE color commentator. She gave birth to her son, Dimitri Paul, on November 8, 2023, but it has been over 600 days since her last appearance on WWE television. Despite being away from the ring for an extended period, Carmella recently shared a post on her Instagram account, revealing that she is getting an MRI to address a current foot injury.

Carmella’s prolonged absence from wrestling can be attributed to complications from her pregnancy. In an interview with The Nikki & Brie Show last May, Carmella opened up about dealing with a condition called ‘Foot Drop,’ caused by nerve damage to her foot during labor and delivery. She also mentioned that she has herniated discs in her back, which puts pressure on the nerve connected to her right foot, making it difficult for her to lift the top of her foot. The injury has been ongoing for over a year, and it has significantly impacted her daily life. Carmella has been struggling with the injury for so long that she has grown accustomed to limping around and has now become numb to the pain.

Carmella expressed her hope to return to wrestling one day, but emphasized that her health and well-being must come first. Fans have been eagerly awaiting her return to the ring, and the news of her ongoing injury has left many worried. Carmella’s journey through pregnancy and injury has been a challenging one, and fans are rooting for her full recovery.
