Carmella’s future in WWE remains uncertain due to her ongoing medical condition
WWE’s Carmella and Corey Graves announced the birth of their son Dimitri Paul Polinsky in November of 2023. While speaking to Bayley on Instagram live, Carmella commented on why she hasn’t returned to WWE…
“I love being a mom. It’s the best thing I’ve ever done ever, in my whole entire life. That being said, of course I miss WWE. Of course, I miss everyone. I miss being Carmella. I miss performing. I miss it so much. I wish I had an update for you guys.
For those that don’t know I have some nerve damage in my foot from delivering Dimitri. I have what’s called drop foot. It’s this nerve behind your knee. It sucks. I wrestled for ten to twelve years, never had an injury, knock on wood, and now I’m doing physical therapy, going to the chiropractor, getting MRIs, and doing all this stuff that I never thought I would be doing, but here we are. Hopefully, eventually, nerves do take a lot of time to heal, but eventually, we’ll get back to it.” (quote courtesy of Jermey Lambert)
