Kiana James may be poised for a major opportunity once she’s medically cleared to return to WWE television.
According to a report from Cory Hays of BodySlam.net, several influential figures within the company are said to be “very high” on the NXT standout, citing her dedication and professionalism throughout her rehab process.
“She’s impressed quite a few people during rehab. Her work ethic and commitment haven’t gone unnoticed. Don’t be surprised if she gets a strong push within the next year.”
James has been sidelined since June 2024 after suffering a knee injury that required surgery. Her last appearance came on the June 17 episode of Monday Night RAW, where she competed against IYO SKY and Zelina Vega in a Money in the Bank qualifying triple threat match.
Although the injury wasn’t publicly disclosed until September 2024, it was then revealed that she would be out of action for at least six months.
