10 Wrestlers Who Returned From Injury And Then Got Injured

4. Tegan Nox

Though she’s not exactly a top star in WWE’s women’s division today, it’s could be considered amazing that Tegan Nox is there at all, considering how rotten the start of her time there was. 

Formerly Nixon Newell on the British independent scene, the Welsh star signed a WWE contract in 2017, and was announced for the first ever Mae Young Classic. However, before the tournament even started, she tore her ACL and had to be replaced. 

Nox returned on the NXT live circuit in early 2018, but her first televised WWE match was in the 2018 Mae Young Classic. She got through to the quarter-finals against Rhea Ripley where, you guessed it, she hurt her knee again, tearing her ACL, MCL, and a bunch of other stuff too. 

Tegan must have felt like if she didn’t have bad luck she’d have no luck at all. 

Thankfully, Nox finally got back on track in 2019, wrestling for both NXT and NXT UK, teaming and feuding with Dakota Kai, and getting her main roster call-up in 2021… but only after she tore her ACL again in 2020!
