WWE NXT performer Kendal Grey remains sidelined from in-ring competition due to a vestibular system injury. Medical staff ruled out a concussion following an injury sustained during a championship defense against Kelani Jordan at the Heatwave event, instead diagnosing Grey with vertigo.

Medical updates indicate that Grey’s recovery has been complicated by additional physical trauma. Doctors have recommended she consult a sports psychologist to address anxiety regarding her return. 

As the situation progresses, Grey has expressed the emotional toll of her condition, stating, “I just don’t know where I’m going. I’m lost, restless. It’s like I’m stuck in this hole that I can’t get out of.” Her return timeline remains uncertain, with possibilities ranging from several weeks to a full year, amid concerns that the injury could permanently impact her physical capabilities.
