After being forced to relinquish her Impact Wrestling Knockouts Championship due to an injury, Mickie James took a break from wrestling. Despite being initially told that her recovery could take several months, James continued to honor her professional commitments by appearing at conventions and contributing to the DressleMania project.
However, in a recent interview with PW Mania, James’ husband, Nick Aldis, provided an update on her condition, indicating that her recovery is progressing better than expected. He stated that while he could not provide a specific percentage of her recovery, she is no longer experiencing any pain or discomfort in her rib, which was the source of her injury.
According to Aldis, James’ injury was in a difficult spot, making it challenging for her to heal and avoid aggravating it. However, he noted that her injury is now looking good, and she is expected to be cleared for action within the next few weeks.
James’ hiatus and injury had concerned many fans, who had speculated that she might be nearing retirement after leaving her cowboy hat and Knockouts Title in the ring. However, with the positive update from Aldis, it appears that James may be back in action sooner than anticipated, much to the delight of her fans.
