Luke Menzies, the man formerly known as Ridge Holland in WWE, wrote on social media that he underwent neck surgery.
Menzies was already on the sidelines after he suffered a Lisfranc injury at the end of September during a match for TNA while under WWE contract, and this neck surgery is unrelated to that.
“After experiencing pain and lack of mobility due to pain in my neck, I consulted with doctors and had tests taken that determined that I had two collapsed discs in my neck resulting in nerve impingement,” he wrote on Instagram.
“Yesterday I underwent disc replacement surgery at the Hospital for Special Surgery in Manhattan with Dr Sheeraz Qureshi. The surgery was deemed to be very successful.”
Menzies was released from his WWE contract a week before it expired after he went on a rant on X explaining how WWE left him “totally f*cked.”
WWE originally chose not to renew his contract after he suffered the injury but his outburst on social media earned him a quicker exit.
