AEW star Leyla Hirsch took to Twitter on Thursday to confirm that she underwent surgery to fix a torn ACL.
For those unaware, Hirsch suffered an injury during an AEW Dark: Elevation taping on April 5th.
Hirsch said,
“On April 5th, during AEW Dark Elevation, I suffered an injury. After landing on my feet from a moonsault, I tore my ACL. Today I was finally able to get my surgery.
Thank you to everyone for the support. I promise to come back an improved, leaner, meaner more Legit Athlete.”
As of this writing, there is no word on when she’ll be returning. This type of injury usually requires around nine months of recovery time.
