Rebel Reveals She Was Hospitalised Earlier This Year

Rebel (Tanea Brooks) hasn't been seen on AEW programming for quite some time, having last competed for the promotion in August of 2022. 

Since then, she has only wrestled one other match, teaming with Harley Cameron on a GLCW show this past February.

Addressing her recent inactivity via a post on social media, Rebel revealed that she was hospitalised earlier this year and has been dealing with some health issues of late.

"This year has not been what I expected. I’ve kept this private until now bc I believe I’m on the up. Thank you to the very few who knew what was going on and kept it private. And for those who didn’t know, I’ll spare you the details but in short, I was hospitalized in May for a good while bc they found a mass in my lung that they couldn’t figure out what it was, turns out it’s pneumonia. A couple of ct scans found some other minor issues that I am taking care of. I feel better every day, now that I am getting a handle on these things. cheers to another trip around the sun," she wrote.

Rebel has been doing work for AdFreeShows of late, including Rebel's Happy Hour every other Sunday. 

She reportedly visited backstage at the June 11 NXT taping.
