Former WWE Raw and SmackDown Women’s Champion Alexa Bliss recently spoke with Scott Fishman of TV Insider to talk about various topics.
During the interview, the recent concussion that she suffered that kept her out of action a few months ago was brought up. Here is what she had to say:
“At first I was very nervous, coming back to the ring because I didn’t know exactly what was going on in my head. I knew I had a concussion, but I didn’t really research concussions. Then I was sent to a concussion specialist in Pittsburgh who pretty much schooled me on pretty much everything on concussions. It made me feel a lot better about the whole situation. It made me feel I was in charge of my injury. It made me feel like I understood it.
I’m definitely not nervous at all being in the ring. I was at first, but now that I’m educated on the topic and know the steps to take to make sure it doesn’t happen again. With the brain exercises that I do and eye exercises, I feel like I’m more prepared than ever now.”
