Kris Statlander isn’t cleared yet.
Taking to Twitter on Thursday afternoon, Kris Statlander shared an unprompted injury update, simply telling fans she’s not cleared yet.
“No I am not cleared yet,” Statlander wrote. “Thank you to those for offering me your legs but I assure you, once I’m healed, both of mine will be mechanically enhanced and your regular limbs will just not suffice.”
Statlander had knee surgery in September and originally estimated that she would be out at least six months to recover. Statlander suffered the knee injury during the August 5 taping of AEW Dark.
After having the surgery, Statlander spoke with Hollywood Life and noted that she’s focused on getting stronger ahead of her return to the ring.
“Mostly just recovering from my knee surgery,” Statlander said. “Getting stronger and getting myself ready to get back in the ring. It’s unfortunately the only thing I can really focus on right now, and I just want to heal as best as I can.”
Statlander later replied to her original Tweet and said that she expects a vague “AEW Wrestler Provides Injury Update” headline.
We’re sorry to disappoint in that regard but wish Statlander well as she continues to recover and aim for an in-ring return.
Thank you to those for offering me your legs but I assure you, once I’m healed, both of mine will be mechanically enhanced and your regular limbs will just not suffice.
